Western Digital My Passport Essentials 500GB

I went to like 5 Costcos and finally found it for $79.99, I mean they advertised the product but they didn’t have it. When I got home the drive didn’t work with my Mac since it was pre-formatted NTFS so I had to figure out how to do it in Vista since my XP and Windows 7 computers are broken. I tried using the format utility in vista which didn’t work since they only had NTFS and eFAT so I finally decide to get the Western Digital tool which gave me an error since the drive was too big. Finally less I decided to use gParted and it took than a minute to complete converting for NTFS to FAT32. The only thing is that it went from 465GB to 464GB. I was supposed to buy a TV. I saw a Sony 40 inch for $550 and when I went back to my local costco a older version with an open box was $700
