Fast, very compact Mar 22, 2008 By Albatross
This drive is pre-formatted as NTFS (PS3 owners will need to reformat to FAT32 if they want to use it with the Playstation 3).

Transfer speed is very fast.

Simpletech advertises single click backup... well, if you use the enclosed backup software. There is no physical button on the drive, you click on the software backup button. A little misleading.
The software is O.K., but I uninstalled it. I am using it as drag-N-drop.

This unit powers from USB/USB 2.0 port. It will power and transfer data using 1 port, if you use the correct USB plug on the enclosed "Y" cable. Read the directions!

No need for a power adapter, but you can use one (not included).

This drive fits nicely in the CaseLogic Small External Hard Drive Case PHDC-1.

Missing software May 22, 2008 By Jennifer "Jennifer"
I ordered the Simpletech SP-U25/250L 250 GB external hard drive primarily to back up my music and pictures. Amazon got it to me very quickly. Both the Amazon site and the SimpleTech site clearly state this comes with software CD (StorageSync). No CD was included with mine, and when I contacted SimpleTech and I was told there was no CD and the software was preloaded onto device. Nope, no software on the device. After several communications with them I was finally sent the CD, but the process was a bit frustrating and their customer service was terrible. Having said that, the device works just fine. Transfer rate is pretty fast, and the software lets you do incremental or full back ups.

Excellent Purchase Apr 21, 2008 By K. Prince "HappyCustomer"
I am very pleased with both the service provided and the product itself.
The product arrived earlier than I expected.
And there have been no problems with the hard drive.
Well worth the price to have peace of mind - using it for regular backups.

Good device for its price May 04, 2008 By Mohammed Al-Adsani "aceboy44"
I was looking for a portable device that is capable of storing all my videos, cartoons, university work, and even programming projects in it. When I saw this product with a cheap price I decided to give it a try and guess what? It worthed every penny I paid for!!! It did store all my files and every other stuff I needed in it. I no longer have to worry about saving data on CD's and have a hard time organizing them. I would strongly recommend this durable product for anyone who wish to keep his files and data organized with him 24/7 and on the go.
