Very easy to use product right out of the box. I like the convenience of no power cord. It shipped on time so I am satisfied.

I purchased two of these Western Digital 160GB 2.5" Passport drives on February of 2008. One gave me trouble right out of the box with with the software not wanting to communicate well with my computer, so I reformatted that one and it worked just fine. I left the original software on the second drive, though I found it of little use.
My computer had a very small hard drive and was unable to hold my software and all of my files. I purchased two of these so that if anything happened to one, I would have a backup of all of my important files.
As of mid-April, both hard drives just simply died at the same time and I have now lost years of important files with absolutely no warning. Now, it is too late to return the drives for a refund and I also have to pay out additional funds to make the attempt to recover the files.
I have tried both drives on multiple computers. One now reads as corrupt and the other simply will not read at all. I am extremely upset and I do not recommend this product at all.
