Brilliant stylish Mobile Drive says Terry Moon - This product is great and has enabled me to back up all my files for work and home. This means my itunes library, all my photos and all my docs. Looks stylish and is very small and lightweight. Well done Freecom
Great external hrad drive for iMac. - Bought this to go with my iMac as the internal hard drive was filling up. Sits nicely on the foot which supports the computer. Silent, doesn t get too hot and looks really nice. Was thinking about getting 500GB non-mobile Freecom but really glad I went for the smaller mobile drive as it s much smaller and runs fine without a power supply minimising cables. Adding another higher capacity mobile drive when they come out and sitting it on top would still be smaller than the non-mobile drives. Not had any problems so far, would definitely recommend. Good price on amazon and super saver delivery quicker than expected as always.
Worth the purchase - Bought this item to use between laptops & my Netgear media player. I have to say for the money its great, No external power needed, fast transfer (a file of 700MB took around 40 secs) this is faster than 2 of my 500GB powered drives.The case feels robust enough for daily use and moving around, set-up took seconds with Vista, just plug & go.Great product.
Tow years of these - I ve used these Freecom drives for a couple of years: I keep audio files and image files that I need regular access to on them to free space on the laptop. They ve travelled everywhere with me - in my day-to-day bag, in suitcases on flights, dragged around Europe on flights and around the UK on trains. So far, they re bullet-proof. The USB power is a great advantage, the metal shell is tough, and well, they just work. I would recommend buying some kind of case for them though, if only to have somewhere to keep the mini-USB cable with them.
Brilliant piece of kit! - Bought this to use as external storage on my mac book, as with all my photos and music it was getting a little slow.What can I say? Brilliant! Took it out of it s box (it is small and neat) plugged the usb cable in and off I went. No installation, nothing. SO SIMPLE TO USE (and I m a girl..!)Can t recommend it highly enough. Fab.
