How can a buyer be sure to receive the newer removable drive version of this pen drive? The fixed drive vesion would not be usable for our purposes.

I don't know if you can be sure, but I bought mine over 3 months ago and it is the removable drive version.

Unfortunately I don't have a solid answer for you, but I bought mine used and I believe it is NOT a static (fixed) drive. Here is a little more information about fixing static drives: http://superuser(dot)com/questions/699417/usb-making-tool-for-windows-detects-flash-drive-as-fixed-need-to-be-seen-as-rem

B. Meerdink, neither of the two information you brought are backed by the links you posted.I've been searching the internet for the same info D. Wong wants, I'm about sure there is no document on WD's website that will state which is the internal drive interface of "My Passport Essential" products. This is something only reviewers who have opened their "My Passport Essential" drives can tell us. Do you happen to own one of those? Have you opened it up?? Has anyone out there?

I had the same thing happen. I bought the drive on July 28th and the rebate form is from 8/1/10 to 8/31/10. I downloaded the rebate form that was linked on the product page and sent it in and got denied for my troubles. I'm going to try to see if there was a July from that I can fill out and send in.

I don't understand what you mean by "re-release"... But the Sonic Pen does NOT come in another set... So you can only get it here. The Screwdriver itself is different from the one you buy as a single. Its lighter, a bit more firm and only comes with the pen end, not the invisible ink marker.

I don't know what you mean by fixed disk. it arrived as a normal USB flash drive

Hello Mr. Fong,If you have a Crucial branch office in Singapore, then they will honer the warranty for this drive. If not, then you will have to deal with the nearest Crucial office to you, or ship it back to us and we will fix it or replace it, and ship it back to you. But you will have to pay for the two-way shipping. Thank you.Regards,RRI06/04/2014+++++++++

I do not always check my email and if there is someone else who has already answered disregard this response. If it is the pen I would only assume a new one needs to be purchased because attempting to fiddle with it can be frustrating. But is it only the mouse function? Because if it is both the mouse and drawing function I would just buy another one but then again it could even be the pad.

Yes, I have. There is no problem doing this as these drives are generic. However, the company I bought it from sent me one which appeared new (with new packaging) but tested as having thousands of hours of use on it. The test said it was working just fine but it wasn't a new device. I did not pursue the matter further as I did not intend to put this computer into daily use and it was not worth the hassle.

As far as I have researched this item, I'm pretty sure you can use a 8gb pendrive, as long as the connectors fit. If not, you can always buy an adapter. I have a new one, fixing to list! Check it out!

Like I have said before, these drives are not of recent manufacture... but they may very well have remained unused for several years....The one I received was made around 2009, but it worked fine.... The warranty you have is only the possibility of returning it if you notice it doesnt work.....

I ordered three from three sellers, even though the listing said the driver was included none came with any disk. I ordered three of these from three sellers as a test, two turned out to be the same seller, same return ID and shipper and item, but one was different and the unit I received though it looked the same, same case and sticker, had a different gold connector and a different PID. So it did not work on the linux environment I needed it to. All sold on the same Amazon page! This is not right and Amazon has too low a standards of integrity for me. As do the Chinese sellers who sell "about the same" items on the same Amazon page. That's not right!

The ones being fulfilled by Amazon are not factory new, and different sellers would have different warranties probably ending at 30 days.These are used drives that may have been mechanically refurbished (mine wasn't physically repaired but it had been used).

The person I tried to do business with did not follow through,put a solid-state Samsung drive in and it will make the machine feel like brand-new.And you won't have to add the memory most likely.

It seems like brand new, but the drive itself is not really recently manufactured... it has very minuscule invisible little scratches... very few and only evident after blowing up the picture I took of it.... but it says it was made on 14 july 2008 in Thailand....... so it must be a left over from when drives at 320GB size where beginning to be more popular.... I am sure it doesnt carry a manufacturers warranty since it is old, otherwise it seems unused, therefore new.

Thanks for the reply. I have already purchased and am using the drive with no problem. I purchased after reading on Newegg that someone had been using it with an Acer Aspire One with no problems. Tahnks again for taking the time to reply.
