 Don't waste your money. August 4, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have had extremely good experiences with seagate drives, and my company has owned thousands.
This drive failed on me within 2 weeks of purchase. Some whiz-bang of a new engineer at Seagate decided that a hard drive didn't need any ventilation. It's bad when a brand new drive runs too hot to touch, then grinds to a halt, literally. The first time I touched it, I knew it was headed for failure.
There are fans in computer cases for a reason folks.

 Works great August 4, 2008
I use this product with two mac books and time machine. It works great, backing up both seamlessly, and gives me extra storage for other files too.
500 GB External HDD purchase August 3, 2008

I bought a 500 GB external HDD from Amazon recently. The product was delivered before the date communicated, in perfect condition. The packaging was very good. I have been using the hard disk without any issues. Thanks Amazon for making my life simpler. I dont have to go out any more to purchase at competitive prices :-)
Good to use. July 28, 2008
This external harddrive is really light. easy to carry and afterall it has a built-in backup system which saves me a lot of time.
 Good customer service, but unreliable drive July 28, 2008
After asking around about hard disk reliability, I was pointed to Seagate. The drive comes in a very nice package/enclosure. It is easy to install and format, even on a Mac. I never experienced any problems switching the drive from Mac to PC...and then after about three months, the drive just died. No warning, it just wouldn't power up one day. I went online and there is an automated RMA/return form to fill out and within few days a refurbished drive shows up, then you send the dead one back. While this is very easy and convenient...I LOST ALL MY DATA and had to spend hours recreating. My next drive will be a LaCie which gets better reliability scores.
