The MyBook Studio Edition drives come preformatted as Mac HFS+ Journalled. If you want to use this drive under Linux you will want to remove all the original partition data.

Western Digital WDH1CS10000N My Book Home Edition 1 TB USB/Firewire/eSATA External Hard Drive
This is one of the best purchases I have made for my home business. All of my files are saved to this drive. I'm able to take my files with me to my office or to work at home. If my computer crashes, which is a given with any computer, I don't lose my files in the crash.
Pros:
--Affordable compared to the cost of losing important files.
--Easy to setup and use

Fantastic product at a great price! I love the automatic backup features that it provides and it is very fast(I'm using the firewire 800).

I have been using this HD for one month now and I am very satisfied. It is silent and automatically turns on or off as the computer wakes up or go to sleep. The backup using Max OS X Time Machine is very fast if you use the firewire port. It is definitely an excellent choice if you need some extra space.
