5 out of 5 stars Not fancy, but works really well   September 8, 2010
I was looking for an external HD to backup my family pictures collection and my "cloud" data, neither particularly big. I've been using the WDE320 and works really well. It doesn't have fancy options, but it's really easy to use, just plug it and works (like a huge flash drive). I'm using a FAT partition to be able to use it simultaneously in my Mac and PCs, the performance slows a little, but nothing of practical significance.


5 out of 5 stars Documentation   September 7, 2010
The package reads: Contents: USB 2.0 portable hard drive; USB cable; Quick Install guide. There was no Quick Install Guide in the package. A paper in the package states that a PDF copy of the manual is installed on the drive. Wrong - there's nothing on the drive. I received my Elements on a Saturday before Labor Day, so couldn't reach customer support until Tuesday, and the so-called technician initially said they aren't included because customers just lose them anyway, and then tried to lead me through their website to find the documents, but finally said that the documents are not available because they aren't needed. I haven't used the drive yet because I always read all of the documentation first - so can't comment on any other feature.


4 out of 5 stars Small and Easy to Use   August 31, 2010
My old hard drive with less memory was twice the size of this. I was impressed by its small size and simple matte finish. I use it with time machine on an iMac 20". It works great. Easy set-up. My only complaint is the short length of the included mini-usb cable. Why is it so small? It's 12 inches long which is much shorter than the cable on my old drive. Aside from that i'm very happy with it.


5 out of 5 stars Backup is fundamental!   August 30, 2010
Got on a smokin' deal on this, the primary purpose for me was to format it FAT32 and use it with my PS3. Since it's very roomy, I can transfer files between work and home, Mac to PC, PVR to PS3 and beyond. Self powered USB bus means no more separate power "brick" to hoist around too, which is huge to me. I have Western Digital hard drives in just about anything that'll take a 2.5" drive, so I do like the brand, value, and reliability. If you too are planning on grabbing a HD for your PS3 to backup to, have a look at my blog post for help on formatting to FAT32: [...]
