    How could a HDD not work with Weven ? NEVER buy Iomega. The two I've bought, have failed spectacularly and for no good reason. I have a WD that I've carried around the world for years and it's still going strong.

      Thanks Raja, How's its toughness, I mean build quality and drop/shock/jolt experience if you have any. From which store and in how much price you bought this one.

          I recommend that you get one that's easy to carry around. It would also be handy if it had cables so you could plug it into different machines.

              Go for the WD. If it's working for Christian it's good stuff!

                    Let's just say that he's incompatible with most hardware, services and airlines. So if it works for him...
