My new WD 1.5 TB Homebook Essential will not allow the computer to go into "sleep" mode. When I put the computer into sleep, after about 10 seconds, the WD drive "wakes up" the computer. I tried changing the settings on the WD drive by un-checking the box by "Settings--Pause backup until computer is idle," thinking this would prevent its activity by not performing a backup when the computer is idle, or asleep. I want to go back to being able to having the computer to go to sleep when I am not using it, and not have to shut it off in order to make it be inactive.

You can use it as storage if you would like. You can also delete files once they are put on the passport. When it is connected to the computer open my computer and it will be listed there. You can use it as storage by copying files into this way rather than syncing it. Syncing it could cause you to lose files.

SOURCE: Hello, I bought WD My Book Essential 1 TB but
Most probably the format of your hard drive is NTFS. Samsung DVD players only recognize FAT32 formats. If you have the patience and resources try to change the format of your hard drive to FAT32. Better yet since it is a 1TB try to create a partition one NTFS and one FAT32 because FAT32 cannot go beyond 4GB for files.
Hope this helps.
