Juststore 500GB Great Value for Money,
Excellent Price and looks really stylish not sure what else you could ask for in a portable drive. The second Buffalo Drive I’ve got, the previous was an old shock proof which I paid a lot more for but was pleasantly suprised with the build quality and performance of this one as I was buying on a budget needing the maximum amount of portable storage sub £50, very satisified with my purchase, definatley 5 out of 5

|So small,
I hadn’t realised how small this unit was when I ordered it. When I got it I thought had been sent the wrong one. Hooked it up to my Netbook and there it was 500gb of spare hard drive space. Has worked well so far, use it to back up my documents, music and programs and still have lots of space left so that my son can back his stuff up as well, so now when the house burns down as long as I remember to grab the drive we are OK.
This is a plug and play unit no software or anything else to install, however if you want you can install the Turbo and Energy saving software. I have done this and have had no problems with either of these two features. Can’t comment on the Turbo feature but the Energy saving one allow you to automatically switch the power off to the unit after a given time. Not sure how much energy this will save as it is powered from the USB anyway.

|handy little HD,
 Â
This HD is very small and neat. It does not require a separate power supply. The only slight niggle is the supplied USB cable; I had know idea the made them this short; it is about 25cm long. This means the HD has to sit ontop of the PC case, I hope it does not over heat. Apart from that it if fine, plugged it in , 2 mins later it is fully in use. I can use it for Doc and photo back ups mainly. Nice..
