Summary: Good if you don't need to travel...
Review: The Pocketec HD does as advertised and works well-- if you don't need to travel. I've had my hard drive for about 6 months and it has completely stopped working. When it was work, I had good transfer speeds (USB 2.0) and it was USB powered, which is why I had gotten rid of my old portable hard drive. This one might have been okay if I kept it in a case that provided more cushion than what comes with the unit, but I'll never know now. So if you just need a stationary portable HD (maybe to transfer between different systems in your home or office), then this is probably perfect. If, like me, you are on the road at least 1-2 weeks a month, you'll want a more robust hard drive that won't crash on you.
