Best Bang for the Buck (Rating: 5.00) Review : 80 gig's of space for alittle over a 100 dollars. I've had this for 4 months now and it works perfectly. It's quite, fast and everything I wanted and more. I don't know what these others are talking about. I use it just for storing Music ,videos and games. No problems. Sweet! (Rating: 5.00) Review : I got mine. Ignored the fact that the other guy had a bad experience with the fan. He must have got a lemon because mine doesn't make a sound at all. Iomega will replace such things, just in case you didn't know. That's what warranties are for. I don't care much for the Iomega software though. Mine seems to hang up...might need some tweeking. But the Norton Ghost 2003 is perfect for my needs. Easy to use. It backed up my entire system in no time flat using the Windows interface. Want to repel rodents? Buy this drive! (Rating: 2.00) Review : Just bought one of these. Seems to work okay, but the high pitch, whirring noise of the fan may be of some concern for some users. It produces 50-55 decibels (equivalent to noise emanating from a 30-year old refrigerator). I'll be using it for backup only, so I'll be able to turn it off when not in use. Which, BTW, must be performed by unplugging it since there is no power switch. If you're in need of disk capacity, spend the extra $100 to get yourself into a firewire compatible drive--the transfer rate of USB 2.0 isn't adequate for quick access. Worse product I've bought in a long time. (Rating: 1.00) Review : Worked great for about 4 weeks then one day I fired it up and "poof" the computer couldn't see it and their tech support concluded that it was broken. I see from other reviews that I'm not the only who has had this problem. I'm serious, someone should start a class action about this HDD. They obviously know it's a lemon. They must have no conscience whatsoever. I lost about 5 years worth of digital photography and about 50 compositions that I've written over the years. All they offered to do was replace it and send my old back. Dream on! I can't afford to lose all the info on this drive. (...). Affordable, reliable disaster recovery and backup... (Rating: 5.00) Review : Have owned this drive for about 6 weeks. Simple install in Windows XP. Iomega backup software works well. Ghost 2003 was a real bonus and works perfectly including allowing you to write to the USB Iomega in DOS as well as restore in case of disaster, first drive I've seen do that this perfectly. Backed up Ghost images of my two hard drives (about 50GB) in compressed form to the Iomega with no problems whatsoever, all while in DOS environment. If you want simple, efficient backup and off line storage, this is your solution hands down. Paid an incredible $90 for it after a rebate, you can't go wrong. |
