"I use this hard drive for video editing using Final Cut pro. It has worked great as my scratch disk and has not given me any issues. It does tend to get warm quick, not unlike the macbook pro itself. It connects very fast, is very compact and stylish, and works well using the firewire800. This was m …"  Read Full Review »

"I'm very happy with this product: it's ideal to carry around: normally harddrives include a lot of additional stuff: cables, power adapter, etc. Here, you only have to carry one or two small cables (the cables are on purpose pretty short and thin and fit nicely into the included bag). That's it. Mor …"  Read Full Review »

"I use the 500GB G drive to back up my mac; I use Time Machine. The G Tech drive is super-quiet (as quiet as the mac itself). It's very small - you can see that from the pics of the product. Also the GTech doesn't have a lot of lights on it. My computer room is close to where I sleep and I'm not …"  Read Full Review »

"I use this drive to backup and transport pics, movies and music. The three options of connectivity are great even though Firewire 400 is being phased out by Apple. Firewire 800 with my new 17'MacBook Pro is blazing fast even at the 5400rpm. The durability and design of this drive is second to none. …"  Read Full Review »
