    I wish that it had a disk access light like my old easyStore drive did. I hope that the drive last longer than that one too.

    It’s noisy. It doesn’t take 50 characters to say it’s a noisy appliance.

    I have always bought WD drives, the only problem with this one is that it's a little bit louder and no LED indicator.

    This was exactly what I was looking for and was working great until all of a sudden it stopped working and now I can't recover any of the files that I had stored on it. Very disappointing and upset since this hard drive was only 5 months old.

    The first one didn't work and needed to be exchanged. The replacement works great except it won't connect to our tv like the 4T does.
