 A sudden death November 22, 2009

I use the disk for storage and back up my PCs, one day, it just died w/o any symptoms. Wrote to WD, initially got a response, then they became quite. After a few reminder, they said the unit can be replaced, but they wont help to recover the data. Using 3rd party for data recovery would void the warranty. Where I live, there is no "WD preferred partners" for data recovery!!
Kind of stuck.

This drive is great. It runs quietly and quickly. Just plug it in a go! Works with our PC and Mac computer both over our network.

I strongly dislike this product. I have used WD drives before without issue, so I didn't think twice before buying this one. I was enticed by the thought of accessing my data through a browser from anywhere in the world. DO NOT BE FOOLED. My drive continuously gets dropped or changes letter assignment, which makes backing up a nightmare. I tried using the WD Backup software but as I stupidly threw out the quick install guide, I am unable to get a product key. I refuse to put more money into this piece of junk. WHY would the company put a registration key on a quick install guide? How about a sticker on the disc? Ridiculous. I used it for the 30 day trial and have been struggling with it ever since. I wouldn't recomment this drive on my worst enemy. Save your money!

I set the drive up to run as RAID 1 (mirroring) so if one drive dies, I still have another with my data safe. It was slow transferring data to the drive; a good task to run overnight. It's also noisy, so park where it won't be too annoying. It's been a little more than a year now, warranty expired, and I could no longer access the drive! If I power it down and up, I can see the management page or access a share for about 30 seconds before it essentially shuts itself down. What does WD tech support say? You lost a drive so now you have to replace the unit! What good is RAID 1 if you can't even access the one good drive?! And what about my data?! Not recommended.
