Great Drive! Partitioned for Both my Mac & PC January 5, 2009
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased the WD 500GB Elite as a backup drive for my iMac. Of course, none of the bundled software applies to the Mac, but that's really no problem for me.
I partitioned the drive as a 400 GB Mac OS Extended drive and configured the remainder as FAT so that I could transfer a few files from the family PC (Vista & Linux). Works great on both computers this way. No complaints.
The drive is fast, quiet, and runs cool. I've had no problems powering the drive from the USB port built into the iMac keyboard. The case that's included is nice protection for in-office use. But, if you're going to carry the drive around, I'd get something more substantial.
Overall, for the price (Currently between $130 - 160), I highly recommend.

Awesome choice for portable storage. Very convenient that it uses your computers power source. Go big or go home.
Back up your important items!!!!! September 29, 2008

If you have ever lost data, pictures, or important information, you now know you must back up all your critical items. Western Digital makes an excellent product. I have purchased several, both the Passport and the My Book external drives, some for gifts. Not just quality, but the ease of set up and use. Don't lose your mp3 data! When downloading the latest version of my particular mp3 software, it crashed. Had I not been in the habit of backing up my entire "MyMusic" file, I would have spent hours replacing it all. I just went under "file", then "add folder to library" and put my entire "MyMusic" folder--saved on my Passport--back in the mp3 library.
