Customer Reviews

Great product
Great size, portable. Easy to use, just don't bother with all the software options. No problems with it so far and have had it for a few weeks and use it regularly.

Great Bit of Kit
This product is very good. I am giving it 5 stars as I am rating the HARDWARE and not the SOFTWARE.

I brought this for school an have been very pleased so far. Data is stored very quickly.

As others have said. The Sync is a no go zone. Just use it as a normal drive.

does the job
Bought this baby to backup heap of music/viseo/etc and had no problems with it so far... didt use the sync software that came with it but just stored it on a seperate folder for possible future use.

Runs on my old laptop with cord supplied (single USB) althou did not not work on friedns old computer with USB 1.1.

only thing, the capacity of the drive is only 232MB as shown in explorer. Not sure if u format it, u may get full capacity but just one thing that seemed a little bizare...

besides that, no real major problems
