    Excellent external drive

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Dec 10, 2006 | 5 out of 6 found this Western Digital My Book Essential Edition WDG1U2500 review helpful

    Pros: Good value for money. Large Capacity. Easy Installation. Free google software included. Fast USB connection.

    Cons: Uses external power source and can be bulky when travelling.

    I think its an excellent drive. The capacity is quite large so you can store all your videos and music on it easily. The fast USB connection lets you transfer files of any size quickly. It just like having another IDE disk. Its easy to set up and is... ready to use from the moment you plug it in. 5 Stars. Read more Less

    Pros: Easy to install; good capacity

    Cons: Slightly noisy

    I loved how easy it was to install this drive, just plug it in and away it went. I use the My Book to store my music, photography, home videos, and documents. It's a litte noisy, but it's so small that I keep it hidden away behind my desk, ...so the noise really isn't a problem anymore. Anyway, the drive it pretty reliable, too. I access it from three computers on my network and there is no delay to acces information. I highly recomend the product. Read more Less
