Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Western Digital 320 GB Passport 2.5" USB 2.0 Hard Drive
Customer Review: Great mobile drive, great price
Summary: 5 Stars
Small, light and stylish. I got this in a gold box deal on the cheap. Formatted storage capacity with NTFS was 297GB. Sustained large file transfers on Vista-x64 stayed at a solid 29 MBytes/sec. I haven't ran into the power issue others have and I've tried it on at least a dozen machines. I'm not saying it doesn't exist I'm just saying it's probably more of a rare issue. Amazon shipped it fast even using the free shipping option.Customer Review: Exactly what I was looking for
Summary: 5 Stars
I was looking for a small portable storage solution that would fit into a safety deposit box, and the 320GB Passport worked out perfectly. It runs with just one USB wire plugged into my desktop PC. I reformatted it as NTFS since it is shipped as fat32, and I then used Acronis Trueimage to back up my hard drive partitions onto the 320GB Passport. I am relieved knowing that my data is now safe.Customer Review: When will the 500 GB version be available? :)
Summary: 5 Stars
I've just replaced my WD 250 GB Passport by this one... for me, it's a better alternative than opening my MacBook Pro (21 screws, bro) to install a larger internal HD.
Brief review: good companion for notebook users who need additional storage without compromising mobility.
Killer features: small form factor, charge through USB, plenty of disk space.
Customer Review: amazing and works inside your Mac
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this drive under the assumption that I could take out the hard drive and put it in my MBP. IT worked perfectly. My Macbook Pro now has a 320GB internal drive in it, and I put my old 80 gig drive into the now empty Western Digital case and it works great as a portable drive in shuttling data to and fro.
Buy this if you have a Mac
Customer Review: Large storage for small space.
Summary: 5 Stars
I am using this as a back up for all my photos. It will allow me to take all my photos to the store for printing.
When using with my desktop I had to plug it into the PC and not the USB hub. With a laptop I had to plug the laptop into the wall outlet. I think this is due to it being a USB drive and needed the extra juice.
