    I decided to try the portable hard drive as it was on sale. I haven't used it enough to give it a proper recommendation.

    I've had other WD hard drives before. However, I bought this when it was on sale last year. I just opened it this week. Tried using it on both computers in my offices and laptops. It is unreadable from both Windows and Macs. It keeps beeping as well. I've tried online manuals and installing all sorts of drivers but cannot get this to work. I wish I could say I love it but I can't even use it to know.

    Compact and convenient. UBS connection works with other hard drives like Seagate. Copy time is reasonable.

    I want to like this product and portable drives in general, but this one wouldn't sync with Dropbox using my laptop. This isn't the first WD drive that I've had this issue with -- I think it's some kind of conflict with my (Lenovo) laptop and their proprietary software. I ended up giving this one to my boyfriend to use with his PlayStation system.
