About this product
The Western Digital My Book WD400D032 is a 400GB external hard drive featuring a 3.5-inch form factor and a black finish. It operates at a rotation speed of 7200 RPM and connects via a USB interface, making it compatible with laptops, Macs, and PCs. This drive is part of the 'My Book' product line, suggesting a focus on desktop storage.
Our take
As a Western Digital My Book external drive, this 400GB unit offers solid desktop storage. The 7200 RPM rotation speed is a good indicator of decent performance, potentially offering faster access times than slower 5400 RPM drives. Its 3.5-inch form factor means it's not designed for portability, but rather for stationary use. Compatibility with laptops, Macs, and PCs is a plus. While the interface is just listed as 'USB,' a faster rotation speed is a definite advantage for general file access, although the '2x' write speed is vague.
