Prices are insane . The USB 3.0 cable itself is priced at 3k

 

[Crazysah]

The 1TB is $140 in the USA which is equal to Rs. 6,503. Over here you get the 500 GB for 6,500! Insanse pricing!

The cables are the controllers, hence the price.

 

[manu1991]

Then the drive is overpriced . 14k for the drive with a USB 2.0 controller ? If they are charging 14k , they should bundle the 3.0 cable/controller too

 

[Crazysah]

Yeah. I don't know why the USB 3.0 cable isn't just included. I bet you in a few months it will be included.

How is WD My Book Essential External Hard Drive 1TB?

 

[Gannu]

^Pretty decent. You might find a bloatware inside the drive though. A friend who recently acquired one off ebay complained of the same.

But the drive performs well.

 

[buddingwhizkid]

yup ! my friend has it and the drive is quite nice !

 

[Crazysah]

So the GoFlex is the only drive that works on both Mac and Windows without any problems?

How much is it now from Nehru Place? I'm looking for 500GB and upwards.
