[Review] Western Digital WD Labs PiDrive 314GB

Today, I want to do my first review on this blog, concerning the Western Digital / WD Labs PiDrive 314GB. I received this nice little drive from the guys over at PiAndMore as a gift for my three presentations at the PiAndMore 9 (among other loot ;)). So, what is this PiDrive and what is so special about it? Well it is in fact a small 2.5 HDD with integrated Sata to USB 3.0 Controller (with the matching “two-piece” connector). It was specially designed by WD to work with the Raspberry Pi Series and gives the RPi 314 GB of space (hence the name PiDrive - however, there is an 1 TB Version available as well).
