| I bought this last September for $91.34 with shipping, and its been a life saver ever since, the only thing you have to be careful with is that when you go to plug it use the Motherboards USB slots (The ones in the back plate), don't use the front ports on your case because the front ports don't give enough power to the HD and can kill it in the long run. All laptop ports are good though. |

 "Dies within a year" | 2008-06-19 |

I bought the 120 GB passport more than a year back. Around 7 months after I started using it, I started noticing data loss. I ran a surface scan and was completely taken by surprise by the number of bad sectors on the drive. I had to send the drive back and get a replacement. My replacement has worked fine so far. However I had also purchased an 80 GB & a 160Gb passport before these issues cropped up. The 80 GB one died with no access to data. The 160 GB one is in the process of dying, I have managed to salvage some data from it however.
The WD drives used in the passport does not seem to have a good life time which is probably why they only have a years worth of warranty. |

 "Broke after 2 weeks" | 2008-05-15 |

| I bought the 80 gig version and it failed after 2 weeks. I performed the test to find the problem and the drive was unable to complete the test, probably because it sounded like the hard drive was spinning very sloppy and possibly contacting something else. I e-mailed WD the results of my test (failed to complete test) and they obviously didn't read the E-mail because they answered me telling me to take the same test I had attempted several times. They do not repair disks, only replace them and the hassle to replace it was a real pain, I refuse to put ANY important information on this drive because it is terrible quality. |

| Exactly as advertised. No outside power source required, plug and play simplicity, and a decent price. I work in the IT industry, and we like Western Digital hard drives. This USB drive keeps up the standard. |

I'm just messing around there, but the hard drive is great! Just don't use the software provided. Windows reads it just fine. |
