The best-selling My Book Elite external USB drive now features a customizable e-label to identify what’s on your drive, visual automatic, continuous backup software and drive lock security protection. The new sleeker design brings beauty and brains together.

Smart display – Create your own personalized drive label to remind you of what’s stored on each drive. You can even view the label when the drive is unplugged. The display also includes available capacity and security status.

Smaller, sleeker, more streamlined design – We’ve made these award-winning drives even smaller, sleeker, and more elegant. As always, this book-like shape takes up minimal space on your desk and allows two or more My Book drives to nestle neatly together like volumes on a shelf.

This is new excellent product by Western Digital. The speed is good, the usability incredible. The only tip that I post for all the future users of this item is “Don’t use the software included in the HDD” Just plug and play the drive and use it with the Windows explorer with copy and paste. Following this tip the use is easy and simple as ABC.

Western Digital My Passport Elite are available in capacities of 320GB, 500GB and 640GB. The drives are available in three metallic colours; red, blue, charcoal. Other product features are as follow:

320GB, 500GB, 640GB Capacity
Automatic, continuous backup
Password protection and 256-bit encryption
Grab-and-go USB dock
Illuminated capacity gauge
Use with Windows and Macintosh computers – some included software applications may not be compatible for both
XP and Vista friendly / Mac OS 10.4 / 10.5.2/ Windows 7
Soft-touch finish – A luxurious, soft-touch, finish makes these drives easy to grip, comfortable to hold, and beautiful to show off to your friends

This drive is great for backups, as you can hook it up fast without a power supply and store it anywhere. Put it in your briefcase, put it in your safe, take it with you anywhere and keep a copy of your data. It is almost pocket-size and the only thing you have to keep with you is a short USB cable. Some people consider the short cable that’s included to be too short, but it’s mobile!

The surface of the Passports can be easy to scratch if you throw it around or keep it in your bag with other items. That would be my only complaint, but it doesn’t really bother to me.

The transfer speed is always quick, and the case is very sturdy. You can have these drives everywhere, because of their mobility and performance. You can’t beat them!

The speed is very responsive. Try to used it on an XP and Vista machine and both have copied data to it fairly quick. I haven’t performed tests on it, but it always gets the job done for me.
