WD Told me that its my fault i break them (i agree kinda)...
Thank you for posting this. I bought a WD (230GM) a few months ago when I was back in the states and I just now got around to pluging it in to the laptop. It is in at the moment. Fortunately I read your message before I was about to yank out the USB. I also do that/
I'll be more careful from now on.
