    WD Passport 160GB

    Pros: Portability (if it works)

    Cons: Quit working

I cannot get to the data on my Passport. It has now become a...n expensive paperweight! The Western Digital site does not offer ANY help even though I am reading about the same problem so many people are having with their WD external hard drives. I believe I have seen only two or three positive posts for this drive. All the others have been about not being able to get to their data because of the same error. Read more Less
