I just bought 2 500GB Passport disks and I m going to return these disks now. Too bad I didnt read thsi tread before I bought the disks, now I have too useless disks.
Im connecting the disks to a ASUS NSLU2 and need to be able to format the disks with the ext3 filesystem, however I cant repartition the disk at all because the firmware protects a part of the disk which fdisk of linus does not allow.
So I was very content with my passport 320 without any crappy software but I need to buy another brand now. WD please do something about it as I prefer WD for reliablity.
