Title: Had such high hopes for the MyBookProII
Product review: I just received my WD 1TB ProII. Works fine on WinXP under USB 2.0. Firewire 400 will not work. I have 3 other Maxtor OneTouch II and III's so am used to working with Firewire. Fan is incredibly noisy, read comments on WD Online Forum and you'll see others have same complaint. My Maxtor OneTouchIII's are virtually silent in comparison. Unable to update firmware for fan noise and I see on forums others are having same problem with drive detection. I wanted the WD for the 3yr warranty and self-replacement that Maxtor OneTouchIII's don't have but this WD product is not ready for mainstream. Unable to get through to phone support and been 3 days and no response on email. Going to return drive ASAP and get another Maxtor OneTouch 1TB. Warning, buy this model at your own risk. Good luck to those who are lucky enough to get a stable unit that works.
