Digital camera reviews of Western Digital WDMER2500TN My Passport Essential 250GB USB 2.0 Portable Hard Drive (Real Red)
Digital camera Review: A Fantastic Little Hard Drive with Lots of Space!
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this 320GB hard drive specifically to swap out the drive with the one in my HP laptop (dv6000)(200GB). After watching a few YouTube videos and fiddling with the darn difficult-to-open case on the Passport, I was happily chugging along with way more space on my laptop! The new drive is much quieter, faster, and bigger than the stock HP Drive. I can definitely say I'm a happy camper!
I've now put my HP Drive into the Passport enclosure to have a nice and sleek little 200GB portable bus-powered drive! Find the best price and get one today, you won't regret it. =)
Now if they'd only start pumping out 1TB 2.5" drives then I'd be REALLY excited. (Of course that'll probably happen by the time some of you are reading this, so fingers-crossed!)
