Exceptional Drive :D

First up this is my first purchase with flipkart and i gotta admit the delivery system is fantastic

i was supposed to get the drive on 14th but i got it on 9th wen i had ordered it on 5th. I took the COD option and it was good enough. Packaging is excellent and was filled wid bubble wraps :P

Now as for the drive :

Since i needed a 2tb drive i had two choices out of internal vs external.I went with external as it was nearly same as the internal one and i can take the drive to my frnz's home...

THANKS FLIPKART

First, the packaging. Western Digital (WD) does an impressive job of securely packaging this hard drive with a minimal amount of waste. There's no unnecessary plastic or cardboard.

This 2 TB drive has to be plugged into the wall socket as well as powered with a USB cable. This My Book Essential External Hard Drive has an impressively long power cable. WD figures the customer is smart enough not to accidentally strangle themselves with a long power cord. So many products I buy have a cord tha...

USB 3 + WD Value

O got this because I have a lot to store, and wanted to organize my media on my computer.

Packaging: Good. Shock proof, well protected.

Delivery: As promised on time.

Product: Build looks sturdy and there is sufficient space for cooling air flow. The disk powers up quickly. It comes bundled with useful security and backup software from WD. I have set the disk to power off after 20 minutes of disuse to save power and elongate its life. This I find is a very good feature.

As far as copying ...

Very useful

Ordered it on saturday as soon as it came in stock (was specifically waiting for this) and got it monday evening. Very impressive!
faced a small problem initially, as there was a slight dent problem and the cord was not fitting in the hdd. I got worried initially but after pushing it successfully manually fixed the small metal piece in place and is working like a charm. Perhaps it was because of the travel or maybe during making, not clear so just be careful and check everything if it's fine ...

FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH WD

Well I was looking for a drive to backup my data & while searching flipkart I found this 2TB drive Reasonable.After ordering this drive it took 4&1/2 days for delivery(maybe due to Diwali).But it was nicely packed & safe.
Though it says 2TB it is giving me 1.81 TB of space after plugging it.It requires power supply,if u have power supply problems in ur locality,think twice before buying.It has nice software which is ready to take backup of ur files,it tells %age of drive which is full,its tem...

AWESOME DRIVE

this drive is really awesome ...a good price for great storage..it has feature of USB3.0 connectivity also backward compatible with USB2.0 .this means u can achieve a good data transfer rate if your laptop or desktop equipped with USB3.0 port.but most of the previous versions of laptops and desktops dont have USB3.0 ports.but if u buy a new one with 3.0.. data transfer rate will increase..upto a maximum which corresponds to the rotation speed of drive..nearly all drives of every company show ...
