It looks like the elements drive is $200 and usb 2.0. The my book essential is $140 and usb 3.0.
I believe the consensus is that the elements drives hold up better than than the my book externals....

You can actually get it from Amazon for $119.99. Ultimately will come out about the same after tax.

Thanks for that tip, I have a 2 more WD power adapters that I will try first. Hopefully it works. Funny thing is I'm using its original AC power supply and getting nothing.

You void the warranty when you remove the drive from the enclosure. That makes a big difference when you are buying two or more. Lower spindle speed means less power, less heat, server friendly.
