Fantastic deal. Hot!

reliable...lol!
have 4 wd disks, used to be a fan of their supposed reliable products (old ones were tho, new ones arent). 2 have failed within a year of purchase (mind you my lacie 320gb ext drive last <3months!!)....after my experience with the dreadful support from this arrogant 'couldnt care less about our customers' company i wont be buying another wd product again

my 320GB version of this drive is fab and its a great price for the 400GB H&R added

Great drive this and does the job. I'm currently using a friends to transfer some data. Just to note that this drive gets very hot so if you do buy one then keep it in a well ventilated area.

Have 250Gb version - great drive ...

It Nice!

this has external power yeah?

Is this a 2.5" HDD?

am i wrong to think this is rather expensive. Comet sold a iomega external hd with a internal seagate hd 500gb 3.5" form factor like this one for just under £50

Is this a 2.5" drive?

I'm not sure!



Well, it isn't a 2.5" at that weight?

The price is good for 2.5", which is what the photos show on Amazon. But the specs suggest a 3.5" drive.

Infact the price seems a little TOO good for a 2.5" drive ... ?

good deals too. This deal is still good value for money, HOT!

Well if it's 3.5" then it's cold. Considering the 1TB Iomega from tesco.

I bought a 500gb early last year for £60. so ... ?

Might have to return my 250Gb Iomega from Tescos.

But first can someone please confirm:

1. 2.5 inch ?

2. LED status light ?

3. drop/shock protection ?

4. 7200/5400rpm SATA ?


Thanks

has to be 3.5" hard drive. Look at the user reviews on amazon. Some are from 2007. 400gb 2.5" hard drives werent too common back then. My guess anyway,.

Cold, you can buy a 500gb for £5 more.....

Yep, agreeing with you. cold cold cold.
