In case somebody is wondering, Iomega has not changed the case, so this drive no longer stacks with the 2010 Mac Mini.

after reading rave reviews of this product, and so many varying reviews of other well regarded hard drives, i thought for sure i had found a great purchase.
The initial set up went quite well, but as i attempted to load bootcamp on my imac, having used the Minimax as a Time Machine backup site, the Minimax completely crashed. Two days old. That's when i found out

I am happy that I am enjoying the huge space of 1 TB available to store all my media files. And it looks good than it does in the images.
