<small><b>The elegant case takes up very little space.</b></small></td></tr> </table> Installation is a breeze because you don't really "install" anything -- just plug it in and it's ready to use. There is not even an installation CD because all the included software loads automatically from the hard drive the first time you plug it in. The My Book Essential is all about simplicity. Just plug it into your computer's USB 2.0 port and you're ready to start saving and backing up your files.

But that's not all. Western Digital uses a smart design to make the My Book Essential look as good as it performs. The elegant case resembles a book and takes up very little space on your desk. Plus, it stacks horizontally and allows two or more drives to nestle neatly together like encyclopedias on a shelf. Inside the stylish exterior is an exceptionally fast, ultra-quiet, cool-running hard drive. Last but not least, the My Book Essential is equipped with free Google software that searches your drives, manages your photos, and simplifies Web searches.

    5 out of 5 stars Western Digital WDG1U1600 Perfect for my needs!.......2007-03-08

    I ordered the Western external hard drive based on consumer reviews and wasn't disappointed. It suited my specific needs perfectly and was extremely easy to set up and transfer files to. I've hooked it up via a USB port and it functions as an ancillary hard drive whenever my desktop fires up. The lit on off switch allows me the option of leaving it on or shutting it off as the need requires. I will definitely recommend Western to any of my friends and will certainly purchase one of their products again in the future.

    1 out of 5 stars Know that the worst thing that can happen... might.......2007-02-28

    I have a WD 160 MyBook Essential, which I enjoyed as it worked flawless for over a year. In the last 24 hours it has stopped powering up, completely dead. This is VERY distressing when you have "put your life on it" as they advertise. Could happen to any brand, but be aware there is an unhappy crowd of owners for this product. I will spend more money next time and buy higher grade components for this critical storage.

    4 out of 5 stars Classy looking drive with excellent performance.......2007-02-28

    This is definitely the classiest looking external drive out there. It is super fast and worked great out of the box with my MacBook Pro and PC. I would be lost without it.

    2 out of 5 stars Turned into a pumpkin after one year!.......2007-01-25

    Worked great until the one year mark and died a hard death. Inside is a Western Digital WD1600JS SATA HD (Caviar SE), this drive has a high failure rate so you might want to spend the extra money and get a Seagate.

    1 out of 5 stars Unreliable.......2006-12-25

    I'm on my third book and I haven't own it more than 6 months. The first one died after I unplugged it to move it to another location. It lit up but there was nobody home. Lost all my data. Second one just died the light just blinked on and off. Lost all my data again. Third drive, not taking any chances this time. I'm going sell it on ebay and cut my losses.
