First of all ,I am using it on an xp server machine. I cannot boot the pc up with the hd connected . One must boot and then plug in the power to MyBook and let Windows detect it. After googling...
Quite possibly it is pre-formated to FAT32 so your PS3 will recognize it, without your having to search for a program to format it to FAT32 (Been there, done that)
Thanks to its military-grade ruggedized exterior, the 320GB Transcend StoreJet 25 Mobile($95) is the ideal solution for on-the-go digital pack rats who don't want to baby their gadgets. It...

Memory is the most valuable thing, in life and in your electronics. You never want to lose the records for your games, your homework papers, your financial figures, etc. So, what do you do? You need to back up your files on an external device to make sure, even if your computer crashes, your memory can still be retained. Think of all the valuable photos from years of vacations, papers and job applications, your resume, your address book, all of those things would be lost if your computer suddenly crashed (which they do, all the time.

The drive was very noisy right out of the box. It worked for two weeks and then seized to operate. The drive spins up and down, very noisily not being recognized by either Windows XP or OS X...

This hd works fine but IT IS NOT THE COLOR PRESENTED IN MOST PICS. This HD is not a traditional cherry red as seen in the pictures, it is more on the pink side. So much so that I went around to...

I have used the Buffalo DriveStation for about 3 weeks. It was easy to connect and install. File transfer is as good as you can get via USB. PROs: -The included Memeo backup software was easy to...

Zip drives were a huge success for several years, but have fallen out of favour as most home PCs now include a recordable CD or DVD drive. Iomega's REV, however, is a kind of 'Super Zip' that...
Always easy for Apple Mac fans to use - and looks great. It is noisy though, and the shinning light is a little annoying. You need to stand it out of sight to really appreciate it.
The directions are a bit murky in setting up the hard drive. The online help is confusing and tedious. Telephone assistance costs $25! If there is only a one-year warranty, why isn't tech support...
Does not Work with Vista, XP or 2000 as stated! BEWARE!
I purchased this brand new from amazon. Out of the box Vista and XP does not recognize the drive. After calling Iomega suport they wanted to charge $25.00 to help me...not cool. I used their chat...

I got this 160 gb as a gift. Very useful. Works fine. BUT the hard drive in order to work correctly requires a double end USB Cable (so you need 2 USB ports)- If you use the regular...

"Very compact, sleek and durable case. Mediocre speed."
For 1.5 TB, this is a really great price. The casing is much more durable than the lightweight plastic cases on many other Externals. It is also a lot smaller than other models. It does seem to...

This drive, with a few caveats, is one of the best external storage purchases I have ever made. It is lightweight, fast, and imminently portable. Since it is bus powered, there is one fewer...
Very nice drive. Love the retractable usb connection. It feels a little hollow/ cheap. It seems like it could be thinner because of this. Easy to smudge with fingerprints too.
USB devices are appearing thick and fast after several years of slow build-up. Most of these devices are peripherals such as scanners, mice, speakers and so on, but LaCie has introduced something a...
The Iomega eGo BlackBelt 250GB 5,400rpm mini-USB connected portable hard drive, launched this week, should appeal to mobile professionals on the move. Shaped like a hip flask, the BlackBelt has two...
I've been converting my VHS tapes into iMovie (digital format) which takes up a lot of space, so I needed an external but I didn't want to spend hundreds. I went though 2 other external hard drives...

I purchased this drive at BJs for $120, which seemed like a deal. The drive seems to be large and heavy. It requires a power connection (via the included power brick) plus a USB connection to the...

This is a nice drive. It's very easy to use and it come with a nice back up tool. I need an extra storage to store all my photos and videos and this drive is my solution. Strongly recommend!
I like what I saw in the video from Popular Mechanics showing how duff this was. Even after a truck ran over it still worked. But the fact that it only works with Iomega software stinks plus the...

Seeing as how all the reviews prior to mine are 4 and 5 stars, I must have had bad luck with the particular Little Disk that I bought less than a week ago.

Very disappointed. The hard drive only enable 9.99... not even 1G. I have to take them to an IT to check them for me. All he said was "Somebody did not do the write job" Now it has...

I suspect most problems people have with rev drives are caused by Iomega's idiotic decision to pretend to be an optical device. This is obviously going to screw with cd/dvd burning software, and...
