Perfect for Apple, although, contrary to my expectations, I couldn't get my computer to recognize it while in windows XP mode (dualbooting).
Almost perfect September 7, 2008

This drive has worked great with my MacBook Pro. Other users have complained about failing drives, but WD gives a 5-year warranty on this unit, so I don't see how you can go wrong. Five years is amazing for a hard drive. In my experience as computer technician, I've seen very few WD hard drive failures. They seem to be very reliable units. Most of my customers' HDD failures have been related to Maxtor drives.
I've been using this drive with Leopard for six months and have had no problems.
I have only two complaints about this drive:
1. It takes a long time to mount after I connect it via FireWire 800. Sometimes up to ten seconds before the icons show up on the desktop.
2. The FireWire 800 connection is very sensitive. A slight bump to the computer, the cable, or sometimes even the desk will often cause the drive to disconnect.
