"Fast, lots of space, it sounds like a mini lawnmower."
It does it's job, I store all my bigger files on it, including PC games and they run through it. The noise this drive makes is so distracting - not even a humming, it's got this annoying zzz sound...
I've owned this drive for almost two years now. Never had a problem with it except recently the USB cable shorted but that wasn't a big deal. It's a really dependable drive, However not the...
There are cheaper ways to back up your data than with Iomega's Rev drive. Selling for just north of £200, and with a 35GB cartridge disk coming in at around the price of a 40GB hard drive (just...
The Rev is Iomega's latest attempt to recapture the glory days of the highly successful Zip drive. The concept is simple. Take a fairly ordinary 2.5in hard disk, remove the heads and place them...
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...
I have this attached to my Mac mini, where is serves as the backup drive for 3 computers over the network. It has been working well so far (4 months) of 24/7 backups, and the assortment of...
It's not the cheapest option for portable storage but it's the smallest, if not the only, 40GB option out there. Offering 40GB of storage, the Iomega drive is very small for its capacity,...
It's noisy when turned, which sounds like a drive dying!
I purchased this from Amazon because of the great price that was temporarily offered. It arrived and was making a lot of noise when turned on. I thought it might just be something that was normal...
Good solid construction, performs well and a great price. It looks very good. I plugged it in and away it went. 2 TB of storage for $148.99. I think I got a special price as I only paid US $148.99...
I purchased the 320gb Iomega "prestige" drive against my better judgment since I have recently had poor results from Iomega drives (two failures in three months.) This drive is not prestigious but...
The drive that is in mine is the seagate sata 320gb ST9320320AS 2.5inch notebook drive. The case is nice and small, drive light is in the rear. I like that the case is made out of aluminum but...

I backup 2 GB of data, and it takes about 90 minutes on my REV drive. Tech support says maybe my server uses USB 1.1 and not 2.0. I don't know...I'll call HP support and try and find out. I got an...

Excellent for Immediate data recall, Self-contained!
The Wolverine is excellent for immediate extra storage space. I've watched movies with my labtop directly off of it, with no glitches or delay! It doesn't require any software download so can be...
It arrived, and wasn't connecting with my computer. No sign of it anywhere. After, contacting service tech. He walked us threw some checking, and we worked out a replacement. The replacement came,...
I am not as negative about this unit as the last reviewer. I live overseas and use this machine every day to watch tv and movies. I have no issues with video quality. I find it clear and although...
I must be getting old because I'm really impressed that some of you found this device anything other than dissapointing. Guess I've been spoiled by my Tivo and ipod.

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 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...

I recently purchased the LaCie 2big Triple 2-Disk RAID Drive. It works great and it is fast. I imported all my videos and pics on it. Doing video and photo editing on it is great.
I purchased this product because it claims that you can swap out a disk and safely rebuild the RAID 1 volume from the remaining disk by adding a new disk. I wanted this feature because I wanted to...
Got this in a week ago and read the manual and everything FIRST. Set the unit to raid 1 mode and used the reset button. The arrow was facing the correct mode EXACTLY.
