 Rating:  - same problem as others hadLike everyone else who complained about this product, I had it for about a year now and suddenly I could not access any data on it.

Excellent product and good price. Rating: - Wd 5-- reviewGood news: it works and is fast. bad news: It has NO on/off switch. How do you reconnect it to your system after you disconnect the USB port? Unplug it and plug it in again? |
