Imagine this. You're getting a new computer. That adrenaline is pumping in you, and your bursting with excitement; till you realize--what happens to your data? Does it get transferred magically to your new PC?

That's when Western Digital saves the day; the USB External Hard Disk. This lovely peripheral can transfer your data to your new PC, and up to a massive 500GB! The My Passport Hard Disk is a lightweight lovely device anyone would love to use, carrying their data wherever they go. This has a very fast transfer rate as well.

When I got my hands on this from Target, for a nice price of only $99.99, I was overjoyed. The hard drive came with a USB 2.0 Cord and a carrying case. Product quality is amazing. I transferred 200GB of data in about one hour!

Palm sized reliable awesomeness!

Now, negatively, I found only one fault. The USB Connector is proprietary--so if you need a new cable, you can only get it directly from Western Digital. But it's a rare case in my opinion that you'll be needing a new cable, I never had to get a new one. It stayed safe with my hard drive in the provided carrying case by Western Digital.

Overall this hard drive is very nice and is manufactured by a lovely data storage solutions company, and is sold MSRP at a nice price of $99.99. I recommend this to ANYONE who needs to take their data on the go, or to transfer it to a new computer or other electronic device.
