The elegant case takes up very little space. |
Installation is a breeze because you don't really "install" anything -- just plug it in and it's ready to use. There is not even an installation CD because all the included software loads automatically from the hard drive the first time you plug it in. The My Book Essential is all about simplicity. Just plug it into your computer's USB 2.0 port and you're ready to start saving and backing up your files.
But that's not all. Western Digital uses a smart design to make the My Book Essential look as good as it performs. The elegant case resembles a book and takes up very little space on your desk. Plus, it stacks horizontally and allows two or more drives to nestle neatly together like encyclopedias on a shelf. Inside the stylish exterior is an exceptionally fast, ultra-quiet, cool-running hard drive. Last but not least, the My Book Essential is equipped with free Google software that searches your drives, manages your photos, and simplifies Web searches.
My Book Essential Edition Hard Drives are ideal for:
- Simple add-on storage for your files, music, photos and movies
- Adding virtually unlimited storage with multiple USB 2.0 external hard drives
- Archiving the music stored on your MP3 player
- Adding plenty of space for digital video capture and editing
- Saving and organizing your digital photo collection
Note: For higher performance and automatic backup software, consider the My Book Premium Edition 250 GB Hard Drive.

Not Mobile.......2007-12-31
Here is my only complaint. The drive is indeed easily set up on most computers (plug it in and it's good) however the power cord and physical size make this fairly unwieldy. You will groan each time you have to yank the power cord and brick out of the wall to move it to a different computer or travel. For me, it wasn't worth it to put up with this when similar storage-size USB powered drives that are half the size and 1/3 the weight are available and require no power cord.
If you plan to leave it on one desk and not move it much then it should be fine! It does work well and is speedy.
WD External Hard Drive.......2007-12-29
Got a 250GB HD last month. It works very well with my Windows 98SE machine. Good for backups and will facilitate transition to more advanced operating system in the future.
Western Digital My Book 250 GB External Hard Drive.......2007-12-28
This is a great product it is good for data, music, movies, and backing up your computer. It has tons of space and I recomend this to any one. I also put my movies on it and was able to connect it to my xbox 360 and watch moves off of it. It is a great device that can help move some files off your computer and free up some space. Makes a great gift too.
Worst customer service.......2007-12-13
My my book crashed within a few months. The customer service never picks up the phone. It just keeps ringing. The enclosure is sealed so I can't check open it unless I want to void the warranty, which I will do tommorrow.
If you buy this product just keep your fingers crossed that you will never need customer support. Warranty is meaningless.
ok for a little while.......2007-11-29
I bought this during the after Thanksgiving sales last year and was happy with it until about a month ago. The light flickered and the drive is no more. Gone are all my files and more importantly - all my music. It was great while it lasted - but not worth the $70 I paid for it. Nothing could be recovered from the drive either and I took it to two different places. I will be continuing my search for a hard drive - and staying far away from Western Digital.
