5.0 out of 5 stars Huge portable storage with a minimum of wires, 27 May 2008
By W. Nelson (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
And it's quick too. I used it to move my video/mp3 collection to my PS3 and was pretty much astounded at how fast it went. And all running off power supplied over the USB cable. Very 21st century and a world away from the old 3.5" external drives with clunky power supplies I've been using up til now. Neither of which I could get the PS3 to even recognize I might add.

I can't think of a bad thing to say about it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Looking good, but some power issues..., 1 Dec 2008
I've already got an older 60GB My Passport which is excellent; has always worked fine even after dropping it five feet onto a wooden floor.

The new one (320GB My Passport Essential) looks much the same and I am confident that it will be just as good...once I get it powered up. I plugged it into my four-year-old home Dell laptop and it failed to start up; the older 60GB version works fine attached to that computer. When I plugged the 320GB My Passport into my newer work laptop it worked absolutely fine.

The solution is to phone Western Digital European Tech Support (00800 275 49338) who know all about this problem; it is because older computers may not deliver enough power via the USB port to power the My Passport. However, they will post you a replacement cable free of charge. The new cable plugs into TWO USB ports and hence collects double the power from the computer. I haven't got it yet but will update this review when I have.

(Updated 8th December 2008 to add:) I just received the new cable as promised from Western Digital. The 320GB My Passport now works as it should on my old Dell laptop.

Hope this helps.

5.0 out of 5 stars Space Saver, 2 Jul 2009
By Mr_P (Formby, UK) - See all my reviews
What more do you want, not much bigger than my Itouch, 320GB, plug and play and a cool colour. Shopped about a little, keen not to have to plug into the mains and the USB option is perfect. It'll sit in a draw for most of its life, i only want it so i don't have to burn many CD's to back up my 27 thousand pictures. Took up about 35gb so should last me a while.

If yr hard drive died today and the items on it couldn't be recovered how devastated would you be.
