 ITS JUST OK January 9, 2009
Rex A. Hall (Southport, NC)
OK first off I own a 120 GB Toshiba and I love it. I got this one thinking it was a better deal than going to my local super store. It however is not a true 320 GB. I got only about 298 gb out of it from my desktop. I could not get it to work on my laptop ( which i admit is not the newest a dell d600). I called Toshiba about the problem and 3 phone numbers later I still had no answer. I found the answer on a blog that stated you needed a powered usb cable for this HD so im going to order it and see if it works. Its a extra $3.64, but if it works its still cheaper.
 Excellent backup drive January 6, 2009

No faults with this nice USB drive. The resident software loaded quickly and flawlessly. Easy to use with the scheduled backups.
Once installed it's one of those rare devices you can essentially forget about. The only down is the provided USB cable should be a bit longer.

I have given up using the Toshiba external drive. It is unbelievably slow, due to its USB connection. If you want to store large files or lots of data, the USB connection is a real disadvantage. More importantly, the drive's erratic behavior has resulted in my losing valuable files and has caused me hours of needless work. Just getting it to connect to and be recognized by my computer was always a problem. However, after a couple month's use, it began to repeatedly and unpredictably appear and disappear from my desktop - sometimes in the middle of saving files. Of course, the files were lost or rendered useless.
I should point out that I've been using the drive with a MacBook Pro, and maybe the drive isn't truly compatible with Mac products. However, you'd never know that from the information on and in the box, both of which say it is Mac-compatible. I have had no trouble with Firelite or Western Digital drives, and would recommend them over this poor piece of engineering.
Great portable drive December 24, 2008

I've had this since earlier this year and used it extensively to transfer homemade video and photo files among my PCs, as well as to back up one of my laptops. Shaped like an iPhone/iPod Touch and weighing about 4.5 oz, it's fast (for a 2.5-inch USB 2.0 drive) and reliable, and easy to carry. It's also whisper-quiet and doesn't get hot like some external drives. It's powered purely by USB 2.0; no AC adapter power possible. I've used it on over a dozen laptops, including old Win2k machines, and have never had a problem.
I'm really happy with this drive and can recommend it without reservation. Now that the 400GB version is going for about 110 dollars, I'm buying that one, too.
(BTW, it comes with backup software for PC and Mac, but for backing up my VAIO laptop I just use Vista's built-in backup utility.)
I am impressed December 22, 2008

This external harddrive right out of the box has worked very well. I have no complaints, and easily recommend it.
