I owned few hard drives so far. But I'll tell you that, Verbatim's Wallet Drive is the best choice so far I made(casual user). VWD is a perfect replacement for my old and rather disappointing G-Drive (500 GB/7200 rmp). Plus, it's leather coating is really good during travel & unbalanced weather conditions (frequently switching from hot to cold & visa versa ). Where most hard drives just give it up or even fail.
Overall, I am really satisfied with my "eWallet".

I bought a Verbatim Leather Wallet 640 GB drive at [@] after comparing features with similar drives. Features that I liked included the physical size, drive capacity, Windows XP compatibility, and it came with Nero BackItUp and Burn Essentials software. However, I was very disappointed with the product from the start. The Nero Software wouldn't install. I kept getting the message "installation of MSI 4.5 for Windows has failed" and there was no other option other than to quit. The manual that came with the product was no help and the Verbatim website wasn't any help either. I found that Verbatim tech support is only open Mon-Fri and this was Saturday. My next step was to look up the problem online. It seems that my problem wasn't new and lots of people had this same problem. Customers were complaining about this exact same problem back in April of 2010 or earlier (it's now December 2011). After spending a couple hours trying to figure out how to solve the problem online I gave up. I don't know why Verbatim would continue to ship a product with faulty Nero software. Today is Sunday and I'm going to return the product. I won't buy a Verbatim product again nor will I buy any product with Nero Software. I suggest you look at other drives before wasting your money and time on this one. As for the rating on this review I had to give it one star but it really rates five dead skunks. It stinks!

Comments about Verbatim 640GB Leather Wallet Drive USB 2.0 Portable Hard Drive:
I had a lot of problems with this drive to start with. It may have settled down now but initially, the drive would click repeatedly and I would get an error message that indicated the drive was disconnected improperly. That happened many times. After several tries at different connections, I finally hung the drive directly off my computer with the short USB cable that comes with it. After several hours of improper disconnects, it seemed to settle down and I haven't had much trouble with it since then. I haven't used it very heavy yet.

I bought a MacBook Air 128GB, so I needed some extra storage. 640GB included on such a little thing...is incredible.
The design on this HD is grat. It looks like a wallet and matched the idea of my MB Air. Thin, and portable.
I totally recommend to buy it.
