Summary: A good device
Review: I bought BUSLink CO-80-U2F External FireWire/USB 2.0 7200 RPM 80 GB Hard Drive in July last year (2003)and I used it since then with very good results. I tried it on three different computers: DELL INSPIRON 8100, 8200 and 5100, on Windows XP Professional and Home Edition.
Each time, it worked as advertised: simply plugged in, the PCs detected the device and, in less than 60 seconds, it was ready to use. I'm very happy with it!

Summary: Works for me!
Review: I have had this drive for over 2 years, and got it at a great price. Works fine with Windows XP, simply plug it in and turn it on.
It has a decent construction, of aluminum and plastic.
The only issue I have with it is that it's not silent; it's a steady metallic whirr sound. Not loud, but it's present.

Summary: piece of junk! doesn't work as advertised
Review: I purchased this drive for my Windows XP laptop. I brought it home with the excitement of finally being able to keep all my mp3's and movies in one place. I plugged it in, and guess what?the thing doesn't work! The packaging says it is ready to use out of the box without having to install any drivers. It's NOT! I also plugged it into 2 other PC's. Same results. The device is not recognized. The manual and website insist that no drivers are necessary for Windows XP. Worst of all, none exist! If you are one of the unlucky many, you're out of luck. I'm taking this back to the store tomorrow. Highly disappointed. Grade F product.
