Happy with this so far

This is just what I needed to back up my files. It works well and is small enough that I don't mind carrying it around if I have to. I would recommend this to people who want a safe and easy way to back up their files!

Western Digital My Book Essential Edition 500GB review

Western Digital's 500GB My Book Essential Edition looks classy thanks to its glossy black case and glowing blue status indicator. It isn't expensive either, with a low cost per gigabyte of just 12p. The Essential was the fastest desktop USB disk here when writing small files.

  • Simple Setup
