EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE FOR A GREAT PRICE! November 12, 2008 Jose A. Batres (CHICAGO, IL USA) I have owned this product close to six months now and the storage capacity meets my needs just fine. Easy to install and operate. I recommend it for use as an addition to any computer and for temporary files.
Pre-mature death! August 7, 2008 James Tuckwell (Sedalia, CO United States) Like a couple of the previous reviewers, I also purchased this product, plugged it in and was up and running in no time with no problems at all. That was 3 months ago and then it crashed, over heated and flashed a red light then came on blue again but my laptop with Vista Home Premium would not recognize it anymore. I checked out the terms of the warranty and they were pretty simple, there is no warranty! I threw it away and bought a new Western Digital, which is half the size and does not require an external power source. Don't buy the Cavalry, there are better products out there for the same amount of money.
Good product May 20, 2008 J. Halbrook (Missouri,USA) Product works great. No problem with set up. Just plug and play. Runs quiet and cool. Recommend for economical portable storage or backup.
Works flawlessly on XP box. May 5, 2008 Norm De Plume (Lake Forest, Illinois USA) I would have given this 5 stars had I not attempted to use this forst on a Vista box. My 2nd computer is set up in my shop exclusively for photo and video projects. It's not connected to the internet, so I periodically take it home to update Windows (Vista). When I got the Cavalry device, my most recent update was about two weeks old. The brand new Dell running on Vista just refuses to recognize this unit. I was about to send it back, when I decided to try it on my older Gateway XP box at home. Of course, it worked flawlessly... It was immediately recognized by XP.
If I knew for certain that Vista was the culprit, I'd give this unit 5 stars.
For what it's worth, I like the on/off switch. Some of my older drives never power down unless I pull the plug. Some newer drives recognise when the computer is calling for them and power on/off accordingly. Too slowly for my Vista box however. I prefer the control of powering on and off myself.
For the price, you can't go wrong with this unit - at least on an XP box.
Good April 27, 2008 Sean R. Tingley (Iraq) Plugged it in as soon as I got it and it has worked great since.
