>>Have been looking at Western Digital passport drives and the bundled WDSYNC software for a client. The software works ok but it treats the Pc drive as the master drive when it syncs with the USB drive. This meeans that if you delete a file from the PC the next time you sync it is deleted from the USB drive - not what you would usually want!
