Western Digital My Book Essential Edition 1 TB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive
I bought this and another My Book with the idea that I would be able to use the automatic backup software that was included. The Memeo software that's "included" with this My Book is TRIAL SOFTWARE however and you have to pay another $30 to use it.

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.

Very Good storage!!!
It takes up little bit of room since it stands upright. I use mine to store all my movies and music. Its great, all i have to do is plug it right into my TV then sit back and watch all my videos!!! I was surprised with how fast it was to transfer files back and forth to my computer.
Pros:
- Simple Setup
- Easy to Use
- Large Capacity
- Reliable Performance
Cons:
- None

Western Digital My Book Essential 3TB USB 3.0 Black
3 TB! Excellent price for a 3 TB drive. Not that rapid. Slow spin up time if it's been idle. I got two of these, and carry them about often simply because I rotate them to another place for offsite backups. No reliability concerns but.USB 3.
