Summary: Does what it is supposed to do 2010-09-02
Comment: It installed correctly and works as hoped for. I would like it to be a little smaller, but it is not a bad form factor, so this is a very small criticism. I would buy another one at this price.

Summary: Great Product! 2010-08-29
Comment: I bought this for my company to back up our Quickbooks and the rest of our hard-drive. Its small and portable enough to keep in the laptop bag. The installation was very quick and easy. It works perfectly for what I bought it for.

Summary: Great external hard drive for college. 2010-08-27
Comment: I got this for college so I could backup my assignments. So far it has proven to be just what I needed. The product doesnt get five stars because the initial backup takes like 2 whole days. That's two days you have to leave your computer on overnight. Other than that, its great!

Summary: Great little hard drive 2010-08-27
Comment: Bought this on a whim, and am I ever glad I did! I ended up needing to move all my iPod touch files, and this has been a godsend. Easy to use, and this is the best looking external hard drive I have ever seen (looks like a little flask).

Summary: Great product 2010-08-19
Comment: So far so good. This product is easy to use and worked perfectly the first time. Deriving required power from the USB port means there is no need to carry around a transformer. Good value too at the price Amazon was offering it for..
There was some discussion in other reviews about needing to re-format the drive to Fat32 format. I found no need to do this as the drive seems completely compatible with my HP Pavillion running on Windows XP.
I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a high capacity portable back up drive.
