Many thanks for this

My last drive from WD had the stupid micro USB connection - which when moving the drive would pop out

This is an excellent price and should compliment my WDTV live.

According to the posts in the old thread the drive inside can be removed from its caddy.

Heat added. Been looking for an external drive that was USB powered.

The PC World deal is actually a little cheaper if you get your 3% back from TopCashBack.

If you prefer delivery, and you are eligible for the free 1 month Amazon prime trial it might arrive earlier than buying it from Dixons

Oooh hope my voucher arrives before it runs out on here, would rather get it with the £25 voucher towards it than pay full price.
