Western Digital My Book Essential 1TB review
External hard disks aren't always the most attractive pieces of kit and they often look ugly sat on a desk. Not so with Western Digital's My Book Essential. As its name suggests, the disk's rounded edges are designed to fit in with the rest of your books on a shelf, and the top, rear and back...

The only problems I have with this hard drive is that it's shiny exterior can be easily smudged up with your fingers. It also has no power button on it and you can't eject it from your computer. This means that it will stay on unless you physically shut down your computer and then unplug it.

Nice Hard Drive
Thought I was getting a great deal of a terabyte of storage for less than $90.00 until I bought locally a 2 terabyte drive for $79.00 at Fry's electronics.

Pros:
- Easy to use
- Fast

- Quiet
Cons:
- Increases boot time

I have 4 of these, I yanked three of them out of the shells and am using them internally and the last I am using as an external. One of the best upgrades I have ever bought for my pc I got all 4 of them for $475.00 I highly recommend using this product.

External Hard Drive
This is a great product. Back up your entire computer. Lots of room for music and karaoke files. The BEST I would reccommend it to everyone so they don't lose important photos etc.

WD My Book Essential 1TB USB 3.0 External HD Review.
Seems very easy to set up - It automatically loads drivers and software in about 20 seconds per machine - I installed on 3 laptops and 2 desktops no problems. Thereafter works well so far for large back ups and is particularly fast if you've got a computer with a 3.0 USB port.
