I’m working on this passport for a client. I am charging the $100 to try and get this piece of crap working. Turns out it’s the jack on the box… inconsistent connections! Bummer for them, but for me too because I much prefer to work on quality products.

My WD passport died miserablely after failing to transfer a file. The drive itself is still running when connected to USB port, but just not recognized by the computer. It cannot be seen from Explorer window. So frustrating! After contacting the support center, I was told that the drive was not recoverable. I simply lost all of my data on the drive.

We’ve had two of the “Western Digital My Passport Essential” drives fail over the past few years (both a 320 GB and 500 GB model), and do not recommend this product as a Portable Hard Drive. Granted, any drive may fail for any reason, which is why one’s backups should also be backed up. However, buyer beware, this model is truly unreliable.

This device connects with what I think is a USB “micro B” plug. At least on this hard drive, this plug is so flimsy that the slightest bump of the device can cause it to disconnect and damage the drive. Inserted into the slot on the drive, the plug jiggles around and feels as if it’s made no connection at all. One month after I bought it, my drive was damaged after a minor cable bump. I’m sending it back to Western Digital for a replacement drive. Considering this fatal flaw, I’ll probably just try to sell the replacement.
Please buy another brand of drive. If you’re going to buy a Western Digital, at least go with one of their terabyte drives, which have a more substantial USB connection.

All it was used for was backups for my macbook. Damn thing died two days ago and I am steamed. You can feel the drive cycling and a very small click, REPEATEDLY! It will not show up on any machine I tried, windows, linux(ubuntu) and of course, my macbook. Now, I have to buy another one. I will be glad when they have 100 gb DVDs so I can just burn a backup and not worry about these damn HDs dying and leaving me in the lurch.
