  • This review has shown that any jewel needs a proper setting. However fast a modern external hard disk drive may be, its speed is going to be limited by the widespread interfaces USB 2.0 and FireWire 400. Our tests of the Western Digital WDG1T5000N prov...

  • At-a-glance capacity indicator. Triple interface.
  • Bundled Retrospect software lacks interface elegance.

  • Fast; integrated USB, FireWire 400 and 800 ports; long cables; bundled back-up software; visual capacity indicator; power button; can boot OS X via FireWire.
  • None significant.
  • Desktop Mac users looking for a spacious and speedy extra 500GB of storage should consider the Western Digital My Book Pro Edition 500GB. The My Book is luggable, though its desktop form factor makes it more suited to sitting on a shelf rather than tak...

  • Looks great
  • Distinct vibration, Slow transfer speeds
  • Unlike many a full-sized external hard drive, My Books cute, book-like design makes it look perfectly at home on your book shelf. The specifications, on the face of it, are quite impressive as well, with a mammoth 500GB capacity and fast 7200RPM rotat...
