I've recently purchased one of these items to back up my computer files. This hard drive is reported to be compatible with Windows Vista, but as far as I am concerned, IT ISN'T.

For reasons unknown the entire contents, including the operating software have gone, and I can no longer use it. Luckily I have backed up most of my stuff. But to add insult to injury, I have tried to seek advice and assistance from the manufacturer via the customer service part of their webiste. They appear ...

The best of a variety of external HDD's I've used. I store VMware images on mine, and my virtual machines run great even though they're on a USB drive. With the compact size, and the fact that it is cool and quiet I highly recommend.
