"Best investment for my computer. I copied 137 gb of a mirror image of my harddrive. After using Vista ultimate's backup system. I got the image completely back after a along 12 hours.

"Pros
I have a previously purchased, WD My Book 500GB Essential 2.0 USB, that stopped responding, lost all data. It was easily replaced with warranty and no hassles exchaging for a new HD. It is a well preforming item, especially the price I purchased it for. I ordered another EHD because of the bar
