HI
These are nice units. But unlike identical units I have boiught elsewhere, these came unformatted from this seller. So they were not "plug-in-and-play." I had to pay my computer guy $50 to set them up for me. So it wasn't such a bargain, afterall.

I've been using the drive for 3 weeks with Apple's Time Machine. It performs very well. Quiet. Fast. Takes up very little space in my pack. Ejects instantly from my desktop. Meets all expectations at a reasonable price. I recommend it.
Rating: - So far so good
My 2007 MacBook's hard drive crashed a while back and erased everything important...my music, my resume, my class syllabi...everything of any value.
I'm determined not to let that happen again. So far the Iomega eGo with Firewire and USB 2.0 is working great. I am running OS X 10.5.5 with Time Machine, which automatically backs my entire computer to my hard drive whenever I plug it in. What a nifty feature!

Note: I have only used this for a few days. I am using the 320 GB jet black model with Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard)'s "Time Machine" backup software that comes with the OS.

This thing will get a little hot (who cares?) if you leave it plugged in, but I just backup my MacBook once in a while, unmount the drive, and unplug it.

Rating: - Iomga Portable Hard Drive [500GB] Firewire/USB
Very satisfied with the Iomega 500GB portable hard drive. Runs a little warm but Iomega Tech Svcs said it was normal. The drive comes clean without any formatting...so you have to "initialize" the drive first. WinXP "disk management" [diskmgmt.msc] has everything you need to do this process before formatting to NTSC. Remember, you are going to lose 7.1% [35GB] of storage space after format. So the usable storage space in this case will be 465GB or 93%. Oh yes, there is no ON/OFF switch for USB/Firewire ... Read More
