Pros: nice sleek case, the drive inside is a western digital, never had an issue with this thing

Cons: none

Pros: Vista recognized it right away and I was able to format it quickly. Works as advertised. It has a nice casing, looks good.

Cons: doesn't come with an eSATA cable, but I suppose that keeps the price down.

Overall Review: Once formatted the drive has 931GB of available space.

Pros: --No fan (should be a con? NO): It runs quieter than my computer. In fact, the only way I know it is on is because of the blue light. --The blue light: It looks cool and is not as bright as everyone says. If it really does bother you then just turn it around. --Very cool: It runs at a very low temperature. Despite having no fan, it cools itself just fine. Even moving 120 gigs of stuff onto it right after reformatting didn't get it running hot. --Did I mention quiet?: Yes. --Not too bulky: It's lightweight and pretty easy to carry around and I've definitely seen bigger (of course, I've also seen smaller for about $150 more though). --Fast: For some reason it transfers files faster onto this drive than any of my other drives do via usb. Throw in the fact that you can use the eSata and you're made in the shade. --Cheap: When I purchased mine it was a bit more than it is now and it was still very much worth it. --The design: It looks cool and fits pretty much anywhere.

Cons: --Rebate: If you're one of those people who send them in, then good for you and hope you don't end up needing to return it. It's still a great value without the rebate but I would have preferred to simply have that price discounted. --Takes forever to format: Have you ever tried formatting 1TB? --Doesn't come with the eSata cable (then again, what does?). --It's quiet: It does actually take a little bit of getting used to; that's how quiet it is. For the first few days I really couldn't tell when my stuff was done being transferred (with most drives you can just wait for the clinking to stop). After about a week you get used to it. This con really only applies to people who have purchased and used many other external drives. --The stand: The stand is the only part that is plastic and while it grips and works perfectly, it feels a little bit cheesy compared to the rest of the drive.

Overall Review: I waited a while to give a review on this after hearing mixed reviews. I've had it for a good couple of months and this is WELL worth it. Often the rebate doesn't get sent and while this was one of those cases, this drive was one of the best buys that i've ever made (with regards to external drives) even without the rebate (then again, sending it in clears liability). Overall; an incredible buy and probably the best drive that I've ever had.

Pros: I purchased this because I needed the quickest, cheapest, dirtiest way to get the largest amount of space on to one volume. This drive was one of the three I was considering. I went with this one because it was the closest match to what I was looking for in this price range. The only thing it didn't have was 32MB Ram which for the price is understandable. *Newegg processed, shipped, and delivered this in a respectable time frame. *The drive itself came in Fat32 so I could use it for both MAC and PC, which was my original intention. *The formatting was easy enough as well and took no time. *The power cord wasn't dinky and short. It was also a standard power supply and is easily replaceable unlike some of the other drives out here. *I transferred well over 1 Terabyte of information one place to another and left it on overnight. It kept a moderately warm temp but wasn't too bad. *Open grille on front maintains temp. *Quiet *Transfer speeds are sufficient *Dual interface (US

Cons: *Casing and Logo was slightly scratched upon arrival. *LED is only one color, bright blue, and doesn't really do much for functionality besides let you know it's on or transferring. Some drives have multi-color LED indicators. On a similar note, the light is pretty bright, but I'd rather have it be so, than too dim. *Housing design is pretty bland and boring, but again, for the price, it gets the job done. I paid for the space, not the appearance.

Overall Review: I was looking for a drive that I could use a "coverall" drive for everything I currently own, which includes: mac os x internal, windows xp internal, windows vista internal, and 3 external hard drives. My goal was to find a drive I could partition 3 ways, back up for mac stuff (Extended-Journaled), back up for PC stuff (NTFS), and Miscellaneous free space (Fat32). This drive does just that with minimal effort. All operating systems I used this drive with detected it with no issues. The only thing I'm not sure about and have been too lazy to determine is whether or not this eSATA drive is "eSATA" or "eSATA 2," and we all know that's an important thing to know...

Pros: I hooked this drive up as external storage to my TiVo Series 3 DVR using the eSATA connection. The TiVo recognized the device right away and started using it. It increased my recording ability from 35 hours HD to 165 Hours HD.

Cons: A VERY BRIGHT blue led on the front. Wow is that thing bright!

Pros: One worked fine and was super quick and quiet..

Cons: One had all the "Pros".. but gave input/output errors after about 3 minutes of use... crashed the actual USB port

Pros: Solid enclosure. Drive does not rattle or shake, as some enclosures do. You can hear the drive spin up, but it is not too loud.

Cons: The super bright LED... but at least it helps me remember to turn it off..

Overall Review: This drive has not had any problems so far. I hold mostly documents, music, and movies, and have not lost or corrupted any data so far. I have it hooked up to my mac; It formatted into 2 partitions (FAT32, and HFS) very easily with disk utility, so that the fat32 partition can be used with windows machines.

Pros: Comes in FAT32 format, gives you the option of formating to NTFS or keeping it as is, which you can also use with your PS3. Great shipping speed from Newegg.com, as usual, awsome.

Cons: None
