Digital camera reviews of Western Digital My Passport Essential 250 GB USB 2.0 Portable External Hard Drive WDXMS2500TN (Midnight Black)
Digital camera Review: All my files everywhere!
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally purchased this external hard drive as an alternate place to store my laptop's date from its HD. Well, after seeing how great and handy it is to have all my files in it to be taken anywhere I have not stopped using this!
For starters, this drive does not require to be connected to an external power outlet, it is powered via USB 2.0 (I have used external CD/DVD writers that use external power outlets so I know how annoying that can be) It is small and light which makes it easy to carry everywhere. I have all my music there so I can synchronize it to my Ipod in my office PC without using any hard drive of it. Movies, photos, videos, music everything can be stored there to be used in any computer with a USB slot available, I barely use blank DVDs anymore. The best functionality to me: the drive is PS3 friendly, so I have access to all my files from the console, instead of watching videos on the laptop I can now do it on my home theater system!
Once I plugged it to my laptop there was no additional install required other than the automatic install every USB drive runs to be recognized by Windows (I am using it with Windows XP) I have not used the backup software included, that is supposed to synchronize with folders in your computer and back them up so there's not much I can tell about that.
The read times are quick and it is not noisy at all, which are complains friends have on other models they have used. I have had it for over a year now and it has never given me any trouble, I would not hesitate to recommend this.
