This was bought to replace my old freecom 40gbdrive. Once when using it on a desktops front usb port, i knocked it with my knee and it snapped the connector.
Due to this I thought I would go for a toughdrive and I have not been dissapointed. I use it weekly and keep it loose in my laptop bag with no real concern for its safety. No chance of the connector breaking here as its a sealed floppy rubbery affair! also there is a magnet on the clip so it wont become loose wherever you keep it.
I have used it on several pc's, laptops and servers without any issue. I often use it for my work on a server that will only have one or two USB ports and neither are in a good postion so I have to leave the drive hanging from the USB port and still no issues.
Never needed to use supplied software. ...
Advantages: fast, spacious and very quiet Disadvantages: none really...
- Windows does not need drivers, you do get a disc with the drive that contains some Freecom software but I haven't used it yet. Within minutes of installing the drive I was transferring over 300GB of data to it and in use I have found the drive to be almost silent, even when transferring gigabytes of data you can only just about hear the drive running and the transfer rates seem excellent for a USB drive (although I haven't actually checked what the rates actually are). The casing does get a little warm in use but nothing to worry about and not too hot to touch,
All in all I am very pleased that I chose this model and will certainly purchase another one when the need arises, I use this drive every single day and would recommend it without hesitation. I have had several external drives over the years and currently also have a WD MyBook 500Gb ...
Advantages: Plenty space, looks good and very tough. Disadvantages: None so far.
I love music, I love movies and as a model I have thousands of pictures all of which I store digitally on my PC well that at least is where I used to store them but I now choose to store them on my shiny new Freecom hard drive. My PC is a good one and it has a 250GB hard drive which I thought would always be plenty for me but I was soon proved wrong and had to get myself an external hard drive and after a few recommendations I settled on the Freecom 320GBtoughdrive.
My modelling pictures are all taken by professionals and using professional cameras that deliver RAW images which are huge in size (aprox 6MB each) when you consider I have thousands of them, space disappears fast. Add to this the thousands of music I store digitally and the tons of movies and you quickly see why the external hard drive was needed.
As this hard drive ...
