I must say I am impressed with this company. Immediately after the purchase of this magazine have the following unpleasant “reasons why you should not buy these published:” 1 It is not simply an external hard drive plain and simple. This is a “Passport”, folks! This means, that is to be assumed that you create a CD mount problem if the drive is connected and backing up your data regularly interested. That would be acceptable if there any way to elect a hard plain and simple, but do not give this option. “2 It is not 500 concerts: Once you are get in touch, there are only 465 available. I know the piece deliberate deception, not only at Western Digital, but either print 465 in the table or figure a way to have all this software, is his silly take less than 35 concerts! “3 It is a standard USB cable, so that the spare parts that you are in your garage is not enough. If you miss, you’re screwed. “Anyway, check out the comments below. Because they are saying on their website,” we are our back my book and my WD Passport Smartware software sending a few more months. During this time we have listened to our customers. As a result of feedback we have developed some software upgrades. Well, what is essentially patches, that this is a standard plug-download-and-play external hard drive. This experience, you’ll notice, was not clear to me, check out the other Western Digital products at Amazon, and you will see that for every negative review, someone from the company and the contract to the customer more satisfied with this product signed. As I said, impressive, has points of the company to undercut in any case 1 and 2. Rating: 4 / 5

It must be true what they say here. I read the criticism, and I decided to buy it too. When the USB cable is a standard. But it is not lost, as some say. I pulled it and is very robust. But it is true that the backup software is still displayed. The virtual CD can be stopped firmware.Por my relief, especially I think it is a great companium for my laptop. Rating: 4 / 5

I own this product and does not seem to be much confusion out there: It is a proprietary cable – This product uses “micro” USB is a standard, and you can see the rapid adoption of mobile communications for. In fact, many new phones with this cable for charging and connection to the computer. So, with the adoption of WD, which could essentially 1 cable for the phone and the external drive. Good stuff:) Smartware – Not my cup of tea, but WD has repressed hide updates and / or personalize your use of this software. I think Smartware is designed for normal users, but for the high-tech enthusiast, you can disable it because it is a great way cosa.Factor – this is hands down the smaller / sexier there as a unit. No other manufacturer has mozo.Calificación on a hard drive as small or large: 5 / 5
