 Fan noise noticeable, but not a deal-breaker. August 30, 2008

I hate to write a review after only having this product for two days (since longevity / life of the drive is what I think is most important when rating a HDD), but I felt the need to respond to the 3-star reviewer from August 29th who said the fan noise was too loud.
I use this drive with my Macbook Pro, and while I do notice the fan noise, it's not going to drive me crazy. I keep mine on all the time since I use it for my Time Machine backups.
As for the performance of the drive: mine is connected via the Firewire 800 port. The write speed is clocking in at 55 MB/s (440 Mb/s) and the read speed is clocking in at 75.2 MB/s (601.6 Mb/s). I used the AJA KONA system test for both of these benchmarks.
 Fan is too loud for me August 30, 2008

I just bought this drive and started to set it up with my iMac. I didn't realize how nice it is the the iMac doesn't have a fan. When I powered up the Iomega drive the fan was so noticeable that 3 minutes later I had it powered down and back in the box. I am going to find a fanless unit possibly from LaCie. If you don't mind the fan noise or have the unit in a location isolated from your computer this may be a great drive. The reviews of the smaller drives have been good. But for me this was a deal killer.
