No way to schedule automated backups. I called the 800 number provided in the us..." Read Full Review »

Toshiba 640GB Desktop External HDD Review

Good for some, but not what I was looking for

★★★☆☆
3.0

"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 connected it all and was ready to start transferring my old external HDD contents to my shiny new external but my fears were confirmed.

"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.



A resolution to this would be to create a batch file that creates and removes a dir …"  Read Full Review »

Drive powers down on its own

★☆☆☆☆
1.0

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 »
