Works, but misunderstood.

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Works great! Fast, easy, and almost fun. Takes the stress off when you're trying to transfer something fast. I also like it because it's hotswappable (no need to turn the computer off).
Cons: After plugging in a hard drive, it sometimes does not recognize other hard drives plugged into it, UNLESS you move the to another USB port OR you restart your computer. This hindrance is sometimes a hassle, especially if I'm switching back and forth between two different drives.
Other Thoughts: Wish it would have come with a trial software for drive cloning and such, but what a great price anyway! Gave it a 4 because of the cons.

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Worked well when I first got it. Recognized all the drives I tried on it: DVD-ROM, 3.5" HDD, 2.5" Notebook HDD.

Be careful; by default it autoplays files on the drive. (in WinXP) I ended up with a nasty virus while working on a friend's HDD.
Cons: Only got to use it 5-6 times until it finally just stopped working. On any computer with any device
