Yes it works with power strips, Yes it can be shared on a network!!
I’ve been using this drive for about a month now. BUY IT! I don’t know if there are some defective drives out there or what but several of the negative claims sounded very odd to me. The first thing I did when [...]

WD800BEVE Western, big and quiet

big and quiet
This 250Gb drive replaced the original 80Gb drive in my G4 PB. The drive affords plenty of extra storage space and by thus adds some extra life to the machine. The reviewer who mentioned that the drive is noisy must have gotten a defective unit: my drive is as quiet as it could [...]

OCZSSD2-2C120G OCZ, Amazing performance…

Amazing performance…
I bought this for my late 2008 MacBook 13″ since it was about half the price of the Apple upgrade and it has performed beyond expectation. I thought It would be a similar performer compared to the included standard 160GB drive considering the pausing reported by others. Instead it completely transformed the performance of [...]

I bought this drive several months ago and it has exceeded my expectations. It is plug and play and has fast transfer. If it locks up I unplug it and plug it back in and it is ready to go. I recently bought a 1TB Western Digital My [...]

NST-360U2-BL Vantec, Nice drive but picture..

Nice drive but picture misleads
Having dealt only with seriously ghetto enclosures prior to this one, it was nice to get a drive of quality heft and construction. Install was a snap, and I got no complains on performance. Only quibble I have is that the drive I got is a more subdued blue, [...]
