"I purchased this hard drive to back up the hard drive of a 1 year old HP desktop running Vista Premium. Relatively easy connection and set up but then the fun began. Tried to set up the back up schedule for the hard drive but I could only get so far with the software before it locked up and failed to completely display dialog boxes.

★★★☆☆

"I just bought this product not 1 hour ago, I took it home and started to use it. After pulling it out of the box I was impressed with how nice it looked.

"I bought the 1TB version of this hard drive and have a huge library that I was going to store on here and share on my home network. The hard drive going idle makes that not possible as it shuts off after ~5 minutes.

"Just as the others here said, the drive would be better if it did not power down on its own. This generates a "WArning Device Not Properly REmoved" on my screen each time. And it seems to take a minute or more to "wake up" when it goes to sleep, which is a frequent occurrence when idle. Also as anot …" Read Full Review »
