Western Digital My Book Studio Edition 500 GB USB 2.0/FireWire 400/FireWire 800/eSATA External Hard Drive WDH1Q5000N

I use this drive with Time Machine on my 15" Macbook Pro, and so far have been tickled pink with its performance. It's fast, beautiful, and even quieter than I had anticipated. The aluminum look matches the aluminum macs very well. I changed out my computer hard drive recently for a larger one and restored the new hard drive from My Book. Approximately 80G of data took just a little over two hours to transfer to my computer's new hard drive. Go Firewire!

The auto power down is really nice, too. Shut down your computer and your drive shuts down with it. Buy Western Digital My Book Studio Edition 500 GB USB 2.0/FireWire 400/FireWire 800/eSATA External Hard Drive WDH1Q5000N!
