Rating: - Great Product
Great product, easy to set up, very small and sleek looking, I've never had a problem with it.
Rating: - Small and cute but not worth it so far
Uggh, I really want to like this drive, especially considering that half the reason I bought this was for the name. The other reason I bought it was because I wanted something that fit well into my purse, and it's an added plus that the cable also fits my Blackberry Pearl.
However, I too have power issues. It doesn't like my USB port, it has to plug directly into the iMac. I figure I can live with that over having to carry a bulky power cord around, but neither my PC or my Mac want to read files directly from it, I have to pull them back down onto the internal hard drive before it can read them. That's probably a power issue too but why am I going to waste time convincing customer service that I need another cable?! Looks like it's back to Best Buy for this little sucker. Maybe I will get that Blueberry drive.
Rating: - Good product
I like it because of its size; you can carry it on your shirt pocket. It's elegant, and you can easily learn on the manufacturer page, if you get any problem.

I needed a portable drive to transfer files from home to work and back. I was looking for something that would fit easily in my backpack and found this drive on sale for a good price. It worked great right out of the box. Quick file transfer between my Mac's at home and PC's at work. I had been using it two months without a problem and was bringing some important files home when it slipped out of my bag. I missed the catch and it dropped about 2 feet onto the street. I caught it after one bounce but it was too late. Both home and work computers will no longer ID the drive. It's dead. I admit it was a good deal and worked fine for a bit but I give it one star for lack of durability.
