Western Digital adds to the Passport line with the new 250gb hard drive. Like the rest of the Passport line this drive will work with Windows, Mac or Linux of course the included software is for Windows only. The WD Passport 250 has plug and play operation and is powered by the USB port and for those with little USB power there is an optional cable available so no need to worry. Overall a small (.59 height x 5.11 length x 3.14 width) and lightweight (.23 pounds) design will make this a great portable drive to carry those important files around.
