Digital camera reviews of Western Digital WDG1SU5000 My Book Premium ES Edition 500 GB USB/eSATA External Hard Drive

Digital camera Review: 3 Dead Drives in 18 Months
Summary: 1 Stars

We bought two of these drives 18 months ago. Within 6 months, one was dead - bad drive sectors, 300gigs of data lost, and it wouldn't even let me reformat to try over again. I received good customer service, and a new drive. Three months after the new drive arrived (9 months after purchase), the second original drive died, same problems, data lost.

Now, 18 months after we first bought the drives and a year after this new replacement drive was sent, IT dies too! Again, bad sectors, windows fails to write, ALL 300GIGS OF DATA LOST.

I bought this drive when Amazon had it available, but I will never buy a Western Digital brand again. After being burned THREE TIMES, I'd be a fool to trust their products!
