I disagree totally with you.  I've been using a Hyperdrive 20 for over
a year and a half.  I've been through 2 software upgrades and have
had excellent response from their service people when I had questions.
Once, due to my own development mistake, I was unable to mount a drawer.
GC sent me via Federal Express, at NO CHARGE, a copy of HyperTools to
recover files from the unmountable volume. 

As far as hardware quality, I have used the hyperdrive while flying on
a NASA aircraft with no noticeable problems. I also use it at 14,000
feet and have no overheating problems.
