HDD RPM correction.......2003-01-19

I have been doing quite a bit of research looking into adding some storage for my multimedia system and Iomega is far and away the most cost effective solution I have found. Especially when you consider that you can take your information to a buddy's house for gaming or working on files.

The 40GB Drive listed here is NOT 7200 PRM, though. Iomega lists it at 5400. For a few bucks more you double the storage and add the bonus RPM. )

Also, note that the USB 2.0 has a higher burst rate (480 MB/s) compared to the Firewire version (400 MB/s).

No Problems.......2003-01-18

Just received my drive and hook-up was flawless. Instantly able to copy files from main drive to Iomega drive. Just like my old Iomega Zip drive, this drive seems to be rock solid. My only complaint is very minor, but I think there should be an on\off switch. I have not used the software yet, but the Iomega software that came with Zip drive is very user-friendly. They are one of the few companies who stick to, and perfect, the basics with a clean and simple layout, rather than try and give you some futuristic "cool" looking software to impress who?

A product that lives up to all of its claims.......2003-01-07

I am very pleased with how well this drive works. If all you want is another drive, plug it in to power and a USB port and you have another drive. No setup required. Although the one-step backup is easy to work with, it does require about a five minute setup. With USB 2.0, it transfers data at 480 mps. It seems just like an internal drive. It lives up to all of its claims.

No effort back ups AND it worked!.......2002-12-12

I purchased this drive a few months ago to use as a backup device for my Dell laptop at the office. Intallation was very simple and in just a few minutes the USB connected drive was busy making my backups. It's continued to work nearly transparently backing up my files with no attention required. And best of all when my laptop recently failed and it's hard drive was wiped clean I was happy to find all my backed up files readily accessible as soon as I reinstalled it on my repaired PC.

I'd give it a 5th star except for a few minor issues. First it's too big and heavy if you intend to use it as a portable drive. Also while the install documentation is adequate to quickly get you running the 2 software utilities have pretty poor documentation and only on the CD, no hard copy. The 2 supplied utilities, One Step Backup and Quick Synch are distinctly separate applications. At first I used the One Step back-up then began relying on Quick Synch to maintain my back-ups .. as I learned they don't work together as when I tried the One Step Restore feature it did not recognize my Quick synch back-ups. My files were intact however and were asy to copy back from the external to local drive with good old Windows Explorer. Finally the back-ups are slow (USB 1.1) and the software slows system performance at times when I'm running lot's of apps. All in all I'd recommend it and in fact am here buying another.

Update Feb 2002 ...
I just installed the same unit at home and now can share the drive over my wireless network performing automating back-ups from 2 computers. It's working really great. The only downside is the slight noise - the drive never stops spinning and there is no way to shut it off ..
