Title: Garbage
Review: I'd read reviews all over the net and this seemed to fit my needs for a reliable external drive to go with the lappy (Dell M65)...particularly given the WD name. I was wrong, wrong, wrong. This drive is garbage... noisey and runs very hot.Worked fine for a few months and then became unstable. On/off button would work intermittently, hot swap is out of the question, BSOD (blue screen of death) became more frequent...until it finally quit.$400 for data recovery. Got 95% of the data back. Neither I nor my clients have time to wait 3 weeks for WD techs to muddle thru it.My best guess is that when the ambient room temp is above 76F it just goes south, despite being in a well ventilated area.Listened to my IT guy this time and bought a Seagate FreeAgent instead. Silent, cooler, boots faster.
