Review: This refused to install on my new Dell.
Technical support helpful. They told me to return it!
After 6 months of fighting the reseller, I finally got my money back.

Similar experience with Maxtor 250 GB!

What's one to do:
Try a Lacie or Seagate Drive?
Even my local computer dealer tried to sell me some junk.

All the Back-up software is poor.

I am now manually backing up to DVD.
That's all there is, unless you have a backup server handy.

Summary: Easy to set up and use
Review: Using USB 2.0 and XP, required no set up. As soon as I plugged it in XP could see it. Pretty quiet. Takes about 2 hours to backup 40 gigs including readback data checking.
