Excellent Hard Drive
Like many other people, I was hesitant about purchasing a Seagate 300gb external hard drive after the years of poor with the 300gb 8mb cache Seagate hard drive (for some reason, barely anyone seemed to have a problem with the Seagate 200gb and lower versions). But, with the more recent reviews, [...]

Rugged fast and inexpensive
I bought this drive several months ago and it has exceeded my expectations. It is plug and play and has fast transfer. If it locks up I unplug it and plug it back in and it is ready to go. I recently bought a 1TB Western Digital My [...]

big and quiet
This 250Gb drive replaced the original 80Gb drive in my G4 PB. The drive affords plenty of extra storage space and by thus adds some extra life to the machine. The reviewer who mentioned that the drive is noisy must have gotten a defective unit: my drive is as quiet as it could [...]

Great right out of the box
I primarily used this item to transfer several types of media to DVD. Two types of camcorder tapes and VHS home movies were easily copied to the hard drive, then edited on screen, them burned to DVD. This unit has lots of features so reading through the owners [...]

Doesn’t fit new WD hard drives.
Tho the cable is recommended by Western Digital’s online manual to provide a more secure connection than the usual SATA data and and power cables, my new Western Digital Caviar GP 500 drive is missing the required legacy ATA power receptacle — there is just a hole where I assume [...]

Solid (and heavy) like a rock
This is, by far, the most robust external hard disk I’ve ever owned. And, when I say solid, I mean almost 3 lbs. solid (I didn’t put it on a scale but it feels that way), 100% metal casing, likely to survive a building collapsing on top of [...]
