just want to ask… i wonder why my 260gb and 320gb WD passport won’t work when i connect it to a usb port hub.. it says here that i need to find a driver installer for it. i tried to let my laptop check for other solutions thru internet but there was no solutions found. can anyone help me? it works when i connect it directly to my laptop.. i just want to coonect it thru the hub coz there’s so many wires around my laptop and i can’t do my work because of these wires…

I have one here. Sadly, it doesn’t work now. And to think I was only using 5GB of the drive!

Could it have been because it fell? Or the continuous plugging and removing the drive from my laptop? I could actually hear this rotating sound after a month of use..till then, it wouldn’t work anymore. Any ideas how i can fix this?

The Epson p5000 is an awesome storage and viewer device. The only problem with it is it will costs 6x the cost of the WD Passport 160GB. You can already buy a 2nd hand L-lens for the price of an Epson p5000.

considered an Epson p-5000? (or canon’s m5?) can view raw photos and you don’t have to bring a laptop. great for trips! you can’t blog on it tho..

@Dexter – You’re right. The casing is what catches the eye.

@Yuga – That’s a nice looking portable drive.

Is it self-powered? If yes, do you think it can handle real-time video capture as I am capturing with my video camera?

Anything above 100GB is just fine for me. I don’t do OS backups, I prefer a fresh re-install each time major disaster strikes.

Just for backup of my personal files and media.

Just additional:
If it wasn’t for the physical size I would be suggesting a 320Gb Seagate or WD SATA Drive since they cost only about 4k now and partner it with a CD-R King SATA External Drive Casing with firewire for P800 and that would be a great deal… hehe

hmm..

I was going to suggest to get either a 160Gb or 320Gb ordinary seagate/ western 2.5 notebook drive and a cheap 2.5 enternal drive casing with firewire support thinking that it will be a lot cheaper but overall it will cost the same hehe.

I have nothing against WD Passport its a great all-in 2.5 external storage. I just find the usb 2.0 only a downer..

I plan to get one too and I’m still thinking whether I should get the 120 or 160. I don’t have much files to backup so either one is enough.
