 Easy to use but Loud and Unreliable November 11, 2008
Fat Matt (Memphis, TN USA)
I purchased this external hard drive for long term data storage a few years ago.
It's loud and unreliable. Luckily I was able to get my data off this thing before it completely died after only a few years of light usage. It was louder than my computer.
It was easy to use and performed well before it started to crap out.
I do not recommend.
 An Electronic Paperweight April 25, 2008

After a few months, it began losing random files.
Now, it powers on, gives me the red light of death, and my computer can't access it. In fact, my computer completely locks up until I cut the power to the Cavalry "hard drive".
I am just happy that I was using it as backup storage, otherwise all my digital photos would have been lost forever. I have a SimpleTech that has been problem-free for years and a FreeAgent that has worked fine so far. I will never buy from Cavalry again.
BUYERS BEWARE!!!!
Seriously, I think the positive reviews on Amazon come from Cavalry employees. Do a search on the web. You will find many unhappy customers of these hard drives.
Very unreliable April 12, 2008

I bought this in late January. It died about two weeks ago. I called tech support and they said I had to fill out their online form. I did that and after a week, I still hadn't heard back from them.
Hoping that I might be able to save the pictures on the hard drive, I opened it up, voiding the warranty. Well, unfortunately, the hard drive was shot, not the controller. The hard drive was a refurbished Maxtor drive. While the failure lies with the hard drive, I did not buy a new external drive with the expectation that I was getting used parts. The hard drive itself was still under warranty and is being replaced by Seagate under the drives warranty.
Buyer beware.
 Nice product. April 6, 2008

Nice product, work as expected, only downside is the big ugly blue light on front. Nothing a piece of electrical tape wouldn't fix.
 Small, cute but reliable! March 15, 2008

It is backing up my important data (mostly for my work) everyday and I feel really thankful and relieved. Moreover, it is very small and cute as well!
