"DIED, ALL OF A SUDDEN"
Liked this product, but only had a one year warranty. It died after 2 years of use. No way to recover data without 3rd party intervention. It makes a very beautiful paperweight.

Easy to use, but might not last too long
I have had 4 of these Western Digital 500 GB USB 2.0 drives(and one also had the eSATA option). I also have 3 of their 1 TB USB drives, and I've used 3 of their older 80 GB USB drives too. As you can see, I've been pretty much a fan of this brand, but see below for some cautions. I've found...

Disappointed in this WD hard drive...

Why release a product that is faulty?
I have had my Western Digital External Hard Drive for about a year now. It has worked fine, mounted properly onto my desktop and been easily accessible for backing up files and retrieving files. I came onto this site to find another backup for it since I started getting nervous about losing all...

Worst service
Technical support for this devices is bad. After a year they will stop working, and you will have to pay just for a tech support phone call. Review warranty from WD before you buy.

Perfect Size Phsyically and Memory Wise
Western Digital's `My Book' line is a mixture of quality (performance) and quantity (available space). These external hard drives work smooth, but may occasionally click (come on it's only natural with that much information). Now with the terabyte model available why pick this one (500gb model)?...
