I have a Seagate Free Agent 500GB drive as an archive and I LOVE it. It does require an outlet and it plugs in via USB. It's a true archive, so easy to use, I just plugged it in and off I went.

I really have no computer knowledge at all...but maybe you have it set up to automatically sync or something? So far I have not had the problem you were experiencing with the WD HD.
I'd be very upset if I lost all my music though...
