This drive pretends to be a CD as well as a disk drive. The CD contents are worthless; your OS already knows how to handle USB hard drives. But you can't disable this intrusive "feature". It also resets its USB interface every hour; I presume this is part of the CD stuff, since none of my other USB drives has ever done it.

My WD does this, and it is 5 years old, you would think WD would learn?
