Summary: Horrible!
Review: Does NOT work with most window xp systems! It works with my MAC at work, but didn't with my PCs. How dare they advertise that it works with windows! I had to go through the hassle of thinking it was damaged so I sent it to Lacie, then they sent me a new one and then it still didn't work so I had to send it back to Amazon and I lost out on tons in shipping costs and I didn't even get refunded the full amount! What a hassle. How about sending me something that works with my system next time?

Summary: Great Little Drive!
Review: First off, I want to say that I have WinXP, and this drive WORKS FINE on it. Lacie is not a bad company either.
So here I go: I've had this drive for a couple months, with almost no problems whatsoever. It has saved me when my computer crashed, and yes it has an on/off switch, which is very nice. It is also very small and affordable. Aside from one time when the power wouldn't come on(it came back on after cooling down), this drive has been a lifesaver and a wonderful companion to my PC. Thanks LaCie!

Summary: I would never buy a LaCie product again
Review: I own several of these drives, but I would never buy another product from LaCie again. I ordered directly from the company. When I didn't receive notice that the drive had shipped, I emailed the company. The reply I received from the company was shocking. It was an email making fun of my name, and how funny it is when you glance at it. It was then followed by another email stating they weren't laughing at my name, but merely commenting on it. This is unprofessional and immature. LaCie has lost me as a customer forever. I ended up purchasing the Maxtor 5000 dv. The Maxtor drive works better, and is a better value. From now on I am sticking with Maxtor, they don't insult their customers.

Summary: Impressive Hardware
Review: This is one of the most solid, well designed, pieces of computer hardware I have ever purchased (maybe this PC user isn't used to what Mac users have come to expect)! Heavy aluminum case - with a power switch (the main complaint in reviews of competing external drives). I compared the LaCie drive to the equivalent Western Digital, Maxtor, and Iomega units, and am completely happy with my choice. In fact, my unit contains a Western Digital drive - in a superior case!
