About this product
The WD My Book 250GB Premium Edition is an external hard drive designed for backup, compatible with laptops, Macs, and PCs. This black drive offers 250GB of storage capacity and features an auto power on/off function for energy efficiency. It utilizes a USB interface and operates at a 7200 RPM write speed, which is faster than many standard external drives. As part of the My Book product line, it targets users looking for a reliable, albeit lower capacity, external storage solution.
Our take
This WD My Book drive is an interesting find for someone who might value speed over sheer capacity. The 7200 RPM write speed is a definite advantage for an HDD, potentially offering snappier performance for backups compared to 5400 RPM drives. The auto power on/off feature is a nice touch for energy savings and convenience. However, the 250GB capacity is quite small by today's standards, making it more suitable for specific, limited backups or archival of older files rather than a primary storage solution for a large digital life. It's compatible with Mac and PC, which is always good.
