Digital camera reviews of 320GB External USB Powered 2.5" Mini Portable Hard Drive
Digital camera Review: An amazing tool!
Summary: 5 Stars
What impresses me the most about this usb powered external portable hard drive was of course its small size (about the size of an 120 GB ipod). Despite the fact that it is dwarfed in comparison to other such tool of its kind, it is nontheless capable of harboring up to 320 GB of data and smoothly operating on both mac and pc with minimun transition time. I managed to back up all my information from my PC laptop onto the External HD with expediency and to organize it through my mac laptop with similar ease...
A great product for anybody who seeks a convinient and small external HD. Higly recommended.
Digital camera Review: Great price, Less filling
Summary: 5 Stars
This drive is small and thin. It comes with a little leather pouch and a cable. The cable has two USB plugs which I'm not exactly sure why you'd need...more power or something, haven't figures that out but it works with one plugged in and is very fast and is made well.
I copied over my xxx-gig of mp3's etc and installed itunes on the drive. I unplug it from my Macintosh every morning and take it to the office where I plug it into my Windows XP PC. Now, with my music & itunes installed, I can take it to anyones house, run MY itunes and grab music, etc by dragging it to the itunes window.
It's a great deal and I would highly recommend it for $99! Fast shipping, too.
Digital camera Review: Great product!
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this little drive. It's great. Fast and PLUG AND PLAY (my favorite thing about new products -- no stupid software setup).
My only big con is that I have a MacBook and it takes up both USB ports to run the drive so transferring from another drive means copying onto my MacBook HD and then onto my external. Other than that I adore it.
Some grips on the bottom or maybe just a rubber casing around it would be convenient as it slides off of things easily if knocked. Grips can easily be added though or a case works to help sliding.
Digital camera Review: Just an internal drive with a case
Summary: 2 Stars
This is just an internal Western Digital drive with a case. It is as small as possible which is why I got it. I have been let down though. It isn't recognized on 3 of the 4 computers I've used so far. My work laptop (Win 2000) recognizes it fine. Our Vista laptop gives error messages. We have 2 XP desktops. One says it can't find the software for the external device. The other just simply doesn't show it. You can't get it to work at all.

I have to send this back. It's junk. I think the problem is actually the USB connector, but am not positive. It only recognizes the device in some machines. Even when it does recognize it, there are frequent warnings that pop up saying the device has been removed unsafely. Sounds like a loose connection. What a bummer, I loved the small size!
Digital camera Review: Neat device
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for myself but then i sold it and purchased a larger drive.But my friend who i sold it to loves it.
