easy setup, nice case, but slow.......2003-01-03

The drive is extremely easy to set up. No drivers need to be installed for Windows 2000 or XP. The drive also comes in a nice padded case where you can store the drive, cables and a few CDs.

The drive can he a little quarkey. Occasionally it has locked up and required that I unplug the USB from the PC. Copying large amounts of data is kinda slow

Hooks right to computer via USB port. No driver needed with Windows XP. It is extremely portable. I've taken it with me from one coast to another and it hasn't failed me once. Zap the Zip drive and get your hands one of these.

Too Slow to Keep Up WIth Large File Copies.......2002-07-19

I purchased this drive to serve as a backup to my digital photo collection. The drive consistently hung up my computer with write errors, at different stages of the copy from my internal hard disk. I tried both DOS and Windows copy software and even restoring from a backup 4 mm tape. All cases pushed data to the drive faster than it could handle. I will now look into USB 2.0 or Firewire Drives. Maybe it needs a RAM buffer or for large file copies, USB 1.1 just can't hack it.

I love editing images out on the porch with my notebook computer. Unfortunately, I didn't want to spend time burning a CD or using valuable HD space in my notebook. I found this SimpleDrive and I like it! I back-up a bunch of my images, and when I get enough I then spend the time burning a CD. Great product!

I went through a couple of so called "portable" external hard drives. I decided to have another go with Simpletech SimpleDrive... it hasn't burped once. I've taken it with me from one coast to another and it hasn't failed me once. Get one if you value storage space and dependability!!
