Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Sep 03, 2008 Type: User Review Works as advertised

Review from a shopper who 'Didn't Rate it'
From: Reviewed by: David Location: CA Posted: Jul 19, 2007 Type: User Review Nothing but problems

Review from a shopper who 'Didn't Rate it'
From: Reviewed by: CNET Expert Posted: Jun 15, 2006 Type: Expert Review

The Western Digital MyBook Premium Edition external hard drive is physically portable but still humongous in terms of capacity. The 500GB unit we tested offered the most mixed performance of any external hard drive we've tested. Though we love its de
