Lets present here more balanced point of view.
I have owned one for more than one year. The drive is fast, but in no
time at all become unbearably loud. The case is nicely designed, but very
poorly made by some cheapo molding outfit. The drive has not failed yet despite
almost constant usage. The software is fine but I would like it to auto-
matticaly mount all partitions with the same password after instead of
prompting for each one of them. On balance the drive can be
recommended, but if I were to buy one again I would go with a higher
capacity one. J.Giergiel.
