This review is from: Western Digital My Book Studio 2TB External Hard Drive with Metal Enclosure (Accessory)
We know a hard disk is not to be 100% trusted right from its first day of use, but if I have some (bad) updates (hope not) in the future, I'll let you know. Oh heck I will :D

Nah, let's hope everything turns out perfect as my other drives so far. Well, this disk has arrived really quick (a 10 to Amazon.co.uk! You take more to deliver books than digital-life stuff, and books were your origing, incredible!), very well packed and protected, and its box was perfect. Opened it, ran a quick hardware test, no errors found.

Plugged it in on my Mac mini and the Time Machine copy I so urgently needed to make has finished in less than 20 minutes I guess. Copied some files (my iPhoto Library) and 3.5GB went to this Hard Drive in 1min16.8sec!

Starts slowly, but then after 20 seconds it accelerates at an incredible rate and the average is 45.5 MegaBytes per second (not Megabits. MegaBytes). With larger files the speed would be felt more. Just for you to compare,... Read more

I purchased this item on the 23/01/12 and set it up and it worked perfectly well. I then went abroad for six weeks which meant the unit was not in use, when I returned and switched it on it would not power up. I got in contact with the seller who basically palmed me off and told me to get in touch with the manufacturers. I sent WD an e mail stating my problem and after two weeks I am still waiting for a reply from them. I also phoned their support in Holland and was told that they would send me a new power unit, I am still waiting for it. My next step is to get in touch with Amazon. Be wary if you intend to purchase one of these because if something goes wrong with it you will face an uphill struggle to get it sorted.
