Rating: - Great portable drive
I purchased this solely as storage for some of my movies and so far it has provided me with what i needed it for. I have an inexpensive Phillips DVD player with a USB port and after making sure that this drive is formatted at FAT32 (NTFS won't work with my DVD player), it reads and plays all my AVI movies. I also use it to play movies on the road in my laptop (via USB, of course) and don't have to pack DVDs. I have 86 movies in it so far at roughly 700-800MB per title so you see i have plenty ...

Rating: - Iomega 250GB silver portable drive
This hard drive is really a great deal. The price was a giveaway. Easily recognized by Vista, 250 GB of storage. Aluminum housing, sturdy and well designed. The only con is, I wish I had purchased the 400gb model before it became unavailable. If you need portable storage, you owe it to yourself to purchase this drive. You won't regret it.
Rating: - Very portable, very fast
I began using the Iomega 33745 250 GB hard drive yesterday, because I needed to back data up to do a Windows Vista --> XP downgrade on my laptop. I hooked it up to the Vista setup and transferred all the files. As soon as the computer was working on XP I hooked it up again and transferred all the files back. Both times the computer recognized the drive immediately and everything worked flawlessly.
The Iomega HD construction is rugged -- non-slip metal casing -- and very simple to operate. ... Read More
Rating: - Great product for backups
This thing works as advertised. It includes backup software that takes a while to run. Whether it would be able to restore your hard drive after a crash, who knows? It has a lot of capacity for "normal" backups of files and folders.
Rating: - nice drive, great portability!
I've had this drive for a month or so now, and I use it back and forth between home (windows vista) and school (macintosh Leopard). I'm very happy with it overall. It offers a lot of storage at a very affordable price. The drive is also very convenient to use. It is so small that it fits easily in a bag or even a jacket pocket. Not having to worry about a separate power cord (it gets its power from the usb port) is also really nice. The drive is also very quiet. It has worked flawlessly so far. ... Read More
