5 out of 5 stars Cool and Cold   August 27, 2008
Michael Andrew Marcial (Miami, FL USA)
Just like many here, I was somewhat reluctant to buy it because of the unknown name. But... It has turned out excellent! I love the fact that it comes with the eSata kit. I also love the blazing speed. It's quiet and the case is always cool, never hot and I have it turned on all the time. I use it constantly to access giant Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop files as well as HQ pictures and the response is very good.

3 out of 5 stars cheesey esata   August 9, 2008
S. Fish (Oxford, Ma)
Upon receiving this everything appeared to be normal. With the product packed well, I was impressed by the case and easy of set up.After set up, though, it failed to connect to my computer.I checked the connection and when I removed to esata cable, the tab inside came out with the cable.I was able to connect it through the usb without any issue, though slower than esata.Maybe should have returned, but works great other than that.

I have had this external hard drive for three weeks now and works perfectly. It accesses my files quickly and has always been smooth.
