Title: This Drive SUCKS!
Review: I have bought drives for military and corporate accounts since Windows 3.0 was the "New Thing". I bought my MYBOOK Essential 320GB drive about eight months ago, and it worked fine until a month ago. The power cord was the first issue. I replaced it...and lo and behold...ALL OF MY DATA WAS LOST!! The drive kept defaulting me to reformat it, saying there was nothing on the drive. Zip, Zilch, Nada, ZERO...!! What's worse is that, like others have reported, it only shows 298GB at full capacity...NOT the 320GB it advertises. For us Old School cats, that's a lot of lost storage. Where did it go? Please don't tell me its a swap file incorporated into the specs of the drive! False advertising is what I call it.Jazz
