^ Thanks for the always valuable input bro Aynz

Now, there are so many versions of WD 1TB

Which is the most basic version and which is the most feature-rich version?

Should I opt for just the basic version?

brader anya is right, the most basic is wd elements. no frills, usb 2.0 hdd. its foot print is ala cd writer; horizontal. while the my book series has a lot of sub models depending on the connection its has. the most basic of which is the my book essential with only usb connection, im not sure what they call the high end my books (studio ata), this is the one with firewire and esata.

since the price difference of mybook essential and elements is just a couple of hundreds only. i would suggest you get the mybook, since its vertical orientation (ala pocketbook) looks better and saves space. but any of them you cant go wrong. i have both.

anong gamit nyong hard drive dock to attach your external hard drives to your NMT? meron kasi sa risingsun at cdrking na ganun pero ang panget ng quality. Nasira din yung binili ko. I bought one from Hongkong and it seems it is doing ok.

Baka kasi may alam kayong ibang hard drive docking station na "quality"

ganito yung sa HK:

3 x 1TB WD My Book.  I just like them in my shelf side by side so I am stuck with buying just this brand and model. Hasn't given me any problems. Planning to buy my 4th.  ;D

4 x 1.5TB  Thecus (mga latak na 720p, at new finds, plus SD movies)
4 x 2TB inside Mediasonic 4-bay (movies, movie series)
4 x 2TB inside Mediasonic 4-bay (animation, TV series, BDMV ISO)

2 aluminum storage x 5 disks x  1.5TB  offline, kabit sa dual dock pag may special requests.
1 aluminum storage x 5 disks x  2TB  offline, ready for disk cloning (kasama si CASTRO disk)

all except 2 units are  2TB SAMSUNG F4 (fastest to cool amongst all 2TB disks after 7 hours of disk cloning).

nakakapagod ding magayos ng disk contents ha.

anyways, to minimize the clutter, i am moving to 3TB,  
letting go off 1.5TB then 2.0TB, PM lang if you want and will dispose bahala na kayong magformat, I just need 8 hours to HD clone 2TB to my 3TB.

for now, pag kelangan i access, i use USB 2.0 dual dock (which has ESATA and USB 2.0), see pix below:
