Well, there are people who insist that it is the spawn of the devil,
but I've been using it for several years now and have never had a
problem with it.  It has been stable, faster than the raw drive for
everything but random writes, and STAC has been quite helpful (I
needed to get it upgraded to a new version, and I'm one of those
people who never bothers to register their software).
