5 out of 5 stars Works as advertised!   November 24, 2009
D. Deavours (Chicago)
I don't know what more to say. You plug this into your USB port and it works. Slow, but then it's hub powered so it's easy to use. Works for my purposes - backing up my pictures and files. I don't back up my whole hard drive to this, just important data so it's big enough.

Deborah Edwards (Pulaski, VA)
Was easy to install. However is a little slow. I purchased it to back up files on one computer to move to a new computer I just purchased. Good product for the money.


5 out of 5 stars Easy to use   November 18, 2009

This little device has been a life saver, just wish I knew about it before my hard drive crashed. It is very easy to use to back up all data with a few clicks of a mouse. Small size is easy to store.


5 out of 5 stars Cable is NOT too short   November 18, 2009
Gordon G. Johnston (CHEEKTOWAGA, NY, US)
I love this device, In it's defence, Everyone comments on the cable being too Short. What part of mobile do you not understand. It's short for a reason. True it does not come with a case so I went out and got one. There...Now its protected. and the cable fits in the case without making it to bulky. I use this for exactly for what its intended for. I hook up the cable with the drive right next to the Laptop, Why do I need a long cable, When I back up the desktop I set the drive on top of the tower. When Im done it gets put away back in the case. Now why do you need a long cable or care how easy it is to scratch. It's a great MOBILE device that does what I paid for.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent extra space!   November 18, 2009
Allan Mora Lopez (Alajuela, Costa Rica)
It is an excellent product, has helped me release much of my hard drive space, comfortable, easy to use and lightweight.
