Summary: Greatest Backup Device Ever!!
Review: I disagree with one of the former reviewers who said he feels that Iomega Drives are flakey. I have run 250MB Zip drives both ext and int for several years w/o problems. This new peerless is easy to install and use, it's speed is fairly fast with USB 1.1 and will no doubt be even faster with USB 2.0 when it becomes widely available. A 7GB back-up of my entire Hard Drive took only 110 min with my USB 1.1 connection. As I understand it; changing to a firewire interface will require only the replacement of the base unit. The receptacle and Disks can be used with any base. I disconnected my tape back-up drives and put them in storage!!!

Summary: Iomega Doesn't make Reliable Drives
Review: I just got a Peerless drive... worked for 2 hours. Just long enough to suck up a bunch of data... and now it doesn't work. Iomega tech support is pretty clueless since this is a NEW product. (You'd think after going through phone-mail hell to get to the right place, the guys there would have had training or something.) Apparently, after reinstalling, downloading and restarting numerous times and such, the guy at Iomega said the drive was faulty. So how long will the new one the send me work? Who knows. This is the FIFTH Iomega drive I've been through in 6 months. Buy a DVD or CD burner instead. IOMEGA doesn't make reliable technology.
