5 out of 5 stars Very easy to use   August 31, 2010
A. M. Forsburg (New Jersey)
While not as small as some 500GB external hard drives I've seen, it's easy to use and easy to store when not in use.


1 out of 5 stars Failed within 2 years   August 25, 2010

When I purchased this item in December 2008, it apparently only came with a 1 year warranty instead of the 3 years now offered. In August 2010 (less than 2 years old), it crashed and is now a worthless paperweight. Set up was easy, and it worked fine - for a while. Buyer beware.


4 out of 5 stars Good back-up device   August 23, 2010

Bought this for my wife's Toshiba laptop as a back-up device. The unit is quiet and its' silver color in the
vertical stand allows it to take up less space as well as look nice. The unit comes with two EMC(Dantz) Retrospect software
back-up programs plus one from Iomega. You have to go to the website and register to get them. The online site
allows you to download them but fails to differentiate between them(i.e.-strengths and weaknesses of each).
This makes it confusing not knowing if you have to do a recovery if all your data, OS and apps will be there.
Otherwise a nice unit at a affordable price.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent product!   August 23, 2010

I already own a 1TB Iomega external hard drive. NO issues to install in my PC and backing up info is as easy as drag and drop. The most difficult issue I've faced has been PC-related (a USB port). It's reliable, relatively portable, 1TB it's enough for those of us just backing up the whole music and documents we consider important. Just duplicate the good experience for 2 TB!


5 out of 5 stars Decent product for a reasonable price   August 23, 2010

We've had no problems - it looks decent and it is easy to use. Just plug it in and basically drag files over.
