Nowadays nobody cares about data volume and as result, we as the end users are forced to buy bigger and bigger drives. And they do come in various forms and shapes, so we here at Modreactor reached out and grabbed with our little greedy hands one such device with capacity of 320 GB, made by Western Digital (the famous rival to Eastern Analog) and in this piece of art (cleverly disguised as review)will tell you about our feelings, thoughts, mishaps and happy times with the product.
Our friends from Solytron
kindly supplied us with one WD My Passport Essential Portable that has the respectable volume of 320GB (and that while being one of the lesser members of the product family). So, we of course abuse it in any way imaginable in order to find out what it is capable of and can it with that capacity and price tag amounting to ~ 140 George Washington's, deal with the year plan in eight months.
Here ate the product technical specifications:
WD My Passport Essential Portable
| Serial transfer (USB 2.0)
| 480 Mbits/s (Max) |
| Capacity
| 320 GB |
| Interface
| USB 2.0 |
| Physical dimentions (L х W х H)
| 126.15mm Х 79.5mm Х 15mm |
| Weight
| 0.18 kg |
| Operating temperature
| 5° C to 40° C |
| Non-operating temperature
| -20° C to 65° C |
According to Western digital it's ideal for:
- Storing or backing up your digital music, videos and photos;
- Carrying important files and e-mail between work and home or on the road and keeping them in sync;
- Sharing large files between office and home, between PC and Mac;
- Pick from multiple colors to express your unique style.
But, hey, let's see what WE could really squeeze out of that 320 GB treasure...
