Does this power adapter work with model western digital external hard drive wdt-d3c ?

Based on the amperage rating of the supply, it is slightly higher than the original that came with my drive. Should work.

It should work just fine. The voltage on most Hard Drives is always 12vdc. The amperage is key as it looks like this power supply is rated to handle at least 3amps just fine. Looks like a good buy. Clem

Yes, that is correct. I used it for my Western Digital Passport external hard drive on my Macbook Pro.

The one I purchased worked just fine with the DW9118 charger. I have been very pleased with the replacement for the two I had that went dead.

This one works fine. As long as the voltage is the same and the wattage is at least what it requires, it will work. Sine this version of the product is not made by WD, it was probably given a higher wattage in order to funtion with devices requiring it. Hope this helps!

They REFUSE to state it! Slimy! From the WD support site: Q: "What kind of hard drive is inside a Western Digital external product?" A: "We can only guarantee drive capacity. We cannot guarantee a particular internal hard drive model, data interface, rotational speed, or cache size in the external hard drive enclosure." http://wdc.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1704/p/209,488/session/L3RpbWUvMTQ0MDkyMTE3NC9zaWQvX1REbVRidm0%3D

It does not work with a Seagate 1.5TB thick portable drive, keeps disconnecting when read/write to it. When connecting a small drive like WD 1TB, 80% of the time will be fine, but it disconnects as well. No matter what power adapter you use! I even tried to use a powered USB hub. It can read and recognize external drives connecting to a USB hub, but it will disconnect from time to time with no apparent reason.

Is it compatible with "WD My Passport for MAC" 2TB Portable External USB 3.0 Hard Drive Storage Black" (WDBZYL0020BSL-NESN), sold by Amazon.com?

It's not a problem to power an external HD on this USB port. DVD? Sorry, not sure about that. Never tried.

Yes, it does. I hook up my terabyte external hard drive and that works aswell

It is specific to a WD external drive. You must check the specs of the Seagate drive and ensure the AC adapter you purchase matches exactly in "milliamperes" and voltage, otherwise your drive will either not work or be harmed or both.

Go here to read from WD's site.http://www.wdc.com/wdproducts/library/SpecSheet/ENG/2879-771434.pdf

While I used it without the power adapter temporarily, I would recommend plugging this in. It will give you better longevity of the device, and it won't use extra power from your computer. I am not entirely sure whether you have external drives is a factor. I assume you are talking about external HDD or DVD drives?

I found the adapter info on E-bay (follow the link) http://www.ebay.com/itm/US-Western-Digital-WD-1TB-My-Book-Essential-HD-External-Hard-Drive-Adaptor12V/171050533357?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222003%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003132420%26meid%3D7247654651354539816%26pid%3D100005%26prg%3D20131003132420%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D171050533357&rt=nc (you may have to copy the link to your address bar in your browser.) The link above gives you the details about the adapter.

Yes. I have connected multiple external hard drives to this hub. It is a powered hub and will power drives that are not externally powered themselves (Drives which have only a USB connector and no DC adapter input).

It should. However, if you're having a power issue with an external hard drive, and the adapter and cord are not the issue, your issue is going to be inside the hard drive. If it's under any kind of warranty I would suggest having it fixed that way. Otherwise, if you definitely have to do this yourself, you're going to have to open up the external hard drive in order to use this adapter's power adapter. I would suggest opening up your external hard drive first, if a warranty is not an option to fix this, to see if you can identify the problem before ordering this adapter.

I'm not sure, I am currently using the external hard drive with Windows Vista and Windows 8 and it works fine. I actually the portability since it don't need a power source except the one it's coming from when is connected to your device. I think it will work as soon as you plug it in. But the box does bring instructions on how to use it for both domains

I've never bought this external hard drive, but I bought a different one (from Western Digital), and I had to buy a case for it. So, I'm guessing it doesn't.
