Average Rating: 
Rating:  - IOmega 250 GB External Drive
A real workhorse. A bit hard to set up.
Rating: - Firewire port failed
I have had the device for about 18 months. The Firewire 400 port failed. This is unacceptable. I purchased Iomega because I had a Iomega ZIP drive for most of a decade. It worked flawlessly.
Fortunately, this device has a USB and Firewire 800 ports. I purchased another cable and was back in business. Still: 18 months?
I think the important lesson is no matter waht external drive you purchase make sure that it has more than one port. I have read other reviews of exteral drives ... Read More
Rating:  - Careful about software
The hard drive works fine but about a month after I bought it, Iomega sent me an e-mail letting me know they would no longer be supporting the software that came with the hard drive. Their solution - I had to buy the new software for $30, no discounts, no apologies.
Rating: - wrong info on amazon
+ yes, it is a hardrive, and it behaves like one.
- however, amazon's info was wrong in that it only has 2mb of buffer instead of 8 as advertised.
- also, it doesn't boot my mac. iomega is especially incompetent trouble shooting this.
- power connector could be in the back, not together with all the other i/o in front
- now, do i get a heart attack and spend hours on the phone trying to exchange?
no, but lesson definitely learnt
next time i do what ... Read More
Rating: - Work horse - highly recommend.
I did a lot of research before purchasing this product and all major publications gave it glowing reviews. I agree. I use the drive on a MAC for huge video files. It works great and pretty fast. ( average file size 1GB) I haven't had any problems in 6 months and am considering buying another one.
