Review after 15 months of use

I bought this hard drive in July 2013 and am writing this review in October 2014. Right away, I created a properly aligned partition on it and formatted it to the ext4 file system, for use with linux. I remember that I had noticed that the transfer speeds were much faster than my old USB 2.0 drive, and the USB 3.0 is definitely worth it.

Fast forward fifteen months, and the drive is almost full now, with 19 GB of free space remaining right now. In this almost full state, I ran a few benchma...

Fantastic!

I have been taking backups on standard 1 TB portable drives for a long time now. With the growth in data, there is a need to have a backup copy of each of the 1 TB portables that I have. I came across this WD 3 TB drive during Christmas. It was freshly launched and looked very neat. The product arrived before time. Thanks to Flipkart for always delivering on or before time. The product was imported in December 2013 and I got it on December 30, 2013. Feels great to get stuff that is most recen...

Works great with my media needs

This product is great for all the storage that you wants and with USB 3.0 the transfer speeds are incredible. Also very reliable since and stable with all the in-built software I got with the HDD.

Good Product

Received the WD My book last week, The power cord is not very easy to be used with a spike buster, so will recommend wall power plug point. The software auto installs itself, and there are no hassles. The 'Register' option in the software does not work (Not a problem with product but the software online support may be down), so you can login to WD India website and manually register your Product (After creating a Login). We get a 3 year warranty after registering which is cool!

Till now I ge...

Satisfied

I'm quickly running out of space though I'm continuously purchasing HDs. But after receiving this 4TB, I felt so relieved as if I'm having an infinite drive.

In the description, it shows that it has only 2 years limited warranty. But actually, they are giving 3 years of warranty. Hope Flipkart will update it and won't confuse customers who might give this product a second preference just because of that limited warranty(as I myself checked it in other websites, where it was metioned correct...

The best in class.......

This hdd is the best for storing large amount of data........sits on the desk quietly and does not heats up.If not accessed for a long period it automatically sleeps and turns itself on when accessed again.Till now didn't have any problems with the hdd.
Also according to my experience WD hdds have very less failure rates than Seagate hdds.

Questions and Answers
Q:Does it need power always? Can't we use like a normal external hdd and connect to laptop via hdd cable? Why extra power adaptor is supplied / required?
A:It's a desktop HDD enclosed in a plastic casing and as desktop HDD runs on 12v and laptop hdd runs on 5v so laptop can't deliver the required voltage and current
