"Good drive for the cash."

Simply put, this is a great drive for the cash I spent, works good for most of what I'm using it for. However, Vista will not let me re size the drive at all. I'd recommend it to anyone that needs a basic drive for storage and backup purposes.

Great Buy!

I wanted an external hard drive to store my music and photos. This was a great buy since it is lightweight and it is portable. I was able to free up much space on my internal hard-drive and now I can store more music and photos!...

"Fat32 limitations, MEMEO Autoback Up"

Great drive for backups. If you are backing up your videos and have file copy errors, try reformatting to NTFS. Of course, you lose the benefits of FAT32 per a previous review that says is great for gaming. But if you're not using for that purpose

"Response to FAT32 comment"

Quite possibly it is pre-formated to FAT32 so your PS3 will recognize it, without your having to search for a program to format it to FAT32 (Been there, done that)

2nd bootup was last connection

Boot one the get to know you boot and format to NTFS. Boot two was back up all my photos. Third boot, now the PC won't recogize the drive. No PC problem here, just a bad WD external drive. One hour of testing, two PCs, two cables, searching the WD website, a phone call to India, more testing,...
