±1±: Best Buy I have 4 of these in my home, each has 2 Seagate 500gig hdds, and I have yet to come into any problems at all with mine.

The first thing you need to do upon getting it is open the case, for almost all 4 shower up with either the IDE or PSU cable off, or hanging on the last needle, giving me errors left and right about how netgear 1 no longer has a letter assigned to it. Once all cables and stuff is plugged back in where it should be nice and tight, Ive had my 4 going on a year and have yet to have a single problem with any of them.

The only downside, is it is slow transfering files to it.

A plus, big plus, is that because they assign a drive letter, I can put on them my kids games that dont need a cd to run on it, and can be installed to that one drive, and all the other users can play that game too, without having to install anything, just click and play.

It also sure beats the need to keep on a dedicated, power sucking, network PC to share files with. These have little 12 watt power adapters, and they even spin down when not in use, so youre saving your hdd, from spinning 24/7, creating heat, and use when not using it so your prolonging the life of your drive and saving money.

My last problem is QC, whey theyoverlooked so many of these with the wires hardly pushed on or off, causing these GREAT storage devices to get a bad rap, but because so I was able to pick up my 4 as refurbished, for half the cost of new.

But there just are a ton of pluses when you get it working correctly, just having therm show up as a drive letter on every pc they have a driver installed for, opens a world of possibilities that you cant have making a dedicated server pc. I will never give mine up till I have the funds for a gigabit unit. Movies, games, music, all from a little tiny drive that can be used without bogging down the main pc, is probably the biggest plus with them on Sale!
