How to manually place files in wd my book essential

[bob deen]

I have a new windows 7 pro machine, and have a WD Essential 2T My Book drive. If I don't download the smartware, how do I transfer photo files from my computer to the ext. drive?

I have the 1TB version. You do not need the smartware software
