Good item and appears to be good quality. Very simple to use and no setup. Actual useable hard drive space is 465gb. Very small, lightweight and super quiet. Included USB cord is only about 6 inches long. Has glossy finish.

Reviewer: KEITH E BOULANGER,
This product is small and highly portable. I have owned mine for 4 months and I love it. I have had no problems unlike other drives I have owned. It works well with both of my PCs and also in my PS3. I am back here to buy another one! Oh and by the way it does not require external power which is awesome!
The best choice

I actually bought this for my Toshiba Satellite A215 notebook, plugged it, and started using it. So far, I haven't had any problems. There's even a little icon in the taskbar which you click to quickly (and safely) remove this hardware if you want to disconnect it without damaging any files. Click it, wait 2 seconds and it's done. And the hard drive is so tiny, it's about the size of a 3 x 5 index card and 5/8" inch thick. I just tape it sometimes on the back of my laptop when my rambunctious 5-yr old is using the computer to make sure he doesn't accidentally kick the hard drive accross the room. It is so small, it stays put even when he moves the laptop around.

I purchased this hard drive a month ago and have been using it 2 or 3 times a week since then. So far it meets all my expectations of:

- Small: About the size of a very slim and small paperback book. Also, having the power supplied through the USB cable cuts down on cable clutter.

- Fast enough for my needs: I'm accessing or transferring large image files and backing up my files, but I'm not doing video editing from the hard drive.

- Ease of use: Drag and drop with the mac. No software to install.
