lost my data!!

User Score: 2.png I backed up my laptop as it was being sent in for repair. I used my back up successfully for a few days on a spare laptop then one day I go into the external hard drive to pull out a file and its disappeared. my backup had simply disappeared. what was left on the hard drive was a back up from 5 months prior. I suppose I should be grateful that I only lost 5 months of data and not all of it. I will never touch another WD product again. I only rate one star because this site won't let me rate it zero. Seriously unhappy client

DONT BUY IT

User Score: 2.png Please DON' T BUY IT

I bought this one at Costco and the sellers told me that this will work with Mac and PC. I didn't know until later than you need a special cable for making it work with the Mac because of some USB port issues.

I called ( 1000 times ) WD and asked them for this cable, they told me every time that the cable was sent to me. NEVER!

I had really important files to save ...

WD has the most unstable support , I've ever seen.

DON'T BUY IT

Do NOT buy...

User Score: 2.png My parents bought me this as a failsafe backup for all my personal photos and music media as my Toshiba laptop power port is failing for a second time and is approaching end of warranty.

Thanks for nothing WD. It worked first time and backed up, now functionality is completely screwed, despite an important software update. Have no access to my files whatsoever! Rubbish!

Warning: Do not buy unless you speak computer

User Score: 2.png I bought several other WD products that I love, so only natural to get this as a backup solution for a friend. I even offered to install it. Four hours later, I still cannot make the software work properly. Do not buy this WD product unless you speak computer, as Frank apparently does. On the other hand, I totally recommend their MyBook.

Fantastic!

User Score: 10.png I recived this drive as a gift from someone that knows nothing about computers. The drive has performed brilliantly up to now, no driver power ect problems.

I use it mainly for music and its perfectly fast enough! I dint bother with the software j just did it the old fashioned way!

Fantastic would recomend!
