I had the 160GB WD for several years and found it to be very reliable at home or on the road. Its compact size and "feather weight" make it a must have for laptop users--or other WD portables HDs for that matter... I am happy to say that I just purchased the 500GB behemoth version!
Highly, highly recommended!!
