Some product to give it a miss I would say.

The new 1 TB Western Digital HD is disabling media file transfer over the network.
That means you are not able to transfer file formats listed here:
(ACC,AIF,AIFC,AIFF,AMF,ASF,ASXAVI,CDA,DVI,DVIX,,FAR,IT,ITZ,KAR,MDZ,MOV,
MP1,MP2,MP3,MP4,MPA,MPE,MPEG,MPG,MPGA,MPV2,OGG,OKT,PTM,QT,QT1,
VOB,VOC,WM,WMA,WMV

Basically all your common media formats are denied and even those not media linked format are being blocked too. I think one can only transfer powerpt,word,pdf,applications using this super ultra big 1 TB harddrive. Think perhaps it will really take us a few years of hard work before we can fill it up.

But one thing to take note is that I personally feel that the design of this hdd is rather nice :P
