I would recommend Seagate as it is the only hard drives that have a five year warranty.

I just bought a WD MyBook Essential 500 gB and it worked just fine.
But, I agree with Enthusiast on the warranty issue - the only one is Seagate! -------------------- - John

Thanks for the info.
In the meantime, I found out it's a Swissbuilt hard Disk. It's called StoreX on www.mevis.ch |
