"Super slow software. Super awesome hardware! Thank you!"
Pros: Quiet, 160GB is great, reliable, quick start-up, cost effective, very portable, dual cable for laptops or P.C.'s, durable and pretty good looking too. Nice white lamp glows softly; visible, but not distracting. Very happy with purchase, except for...
Cons: Everything I said in pros was about hardware. Let's talk about software. Believe me when I tell you that I personally had to wait for 3 hours for the software to load. Maybe it was my computer, but judging other peoples reviews, I seriously doubt it.
Summary: Bottom line=buy it. Software aside, I like this device. I dont have anything else to compare it to as it is my first external hard drive, but initially using CNET, I did my homework and chose wisely. Great external hard drive! By the way, if you were wondering, in the span of one year I have used it to back up about 25GB of photos, itunes, WAV and Mp3, etc... and still have 120+GB to go! Awesome. Buy it!
