Customer Reviews

the LED indicated could be better
I just ordered this drive and I am quite happy about it. The maximum read speed through USB is 19.5 Mb/s (not bad). I didnt have a chance to test firewire yet. The only thing that is a bit irritating is a LED indicator that has 2 modes: lit with blue when no read/write activity or LED off (!) when reading/writing to disk... not terribly convenient LED design. When you are writing a big file to disk you may think that the disk is simply not connected.

Won't BUS with Mobile Disk 110GB Firewire Drive
This is a very good value drive that works very well when directly connected to my MacBook Pro Intel via firewire... but...the main reason I need it is to back-up my back-up drive and was hoping to use it without an additional external hub since I only have one firewire port. Unfortunately I should have stuck with a Mobile Disk and paid the extra, as this one will not BUS and just hangs when trying to back-up from the Mobile disk external firewire drive using Retrospect and/or dragging and dropping the stuff. Disappointing as now I have to spend the cash on an external firewire powered hub (there is an AC on the freecom but it doesn't come with the power supply). To sum up = very good value if not intending to BUS however maybe it does so efficiently with another freecom drive or is happier when used with one of those nasty PCs ;-)
