Rating:  - A good drive for basic backup needs
I use Apple's Time Machine with my MacBook Pro and find this drive to work just fine for that application.Upon first connection, Time Machine will reformat the drive to suit its needs.Otherwise, installation was seamless, simple, and the drive is working just fine since then.If you don't need Firewire support, then don't pay for it.This drive has a single USB 2.0 connection, and that's all I needed.So far, so good.
Rating:  - set it and forget it
Phew!Now I don't worry about backups any more.Got this unit, installed it instantly, set my backup program instantly, and it has worked flawlessly, quietly, dependably.Love it.
Rating: - Endless sorage
It's small and light. Very, almost stupidly easy to use, it's like plug and play. You can put it between your books and it gets confused with one of them. Excellent product and good price.
Rating: - Wd 5-- review
Good news: it works and is fast.
bad news: It has NO on/off switch. How do you reconnect it to your system after you disconnect the USB port? Unplug it and plug it in again?
