Advantages: 250GB capacity, 2 firewire port, 1 usb ports
Disadvantages: alittle bit expensive

Advantages: Very Reliable, Fast Transfer Speed
Disadvantages: quite heavy for a external Hard drive (not too heavy)

...Ive owned this product for just over a year now, its been very reliable unlike other external hard drives ive had in the past. Freecom are a good brand of Back-Up Devices, 250 Gb has proved to be more than enough space for what i needed to back up. All of my music, Films, PICTURES, Work Files all fit onto it with still more than 120 Gb Spared. The Transfer speed is also very fast. I also do alot of travelling, so i need the External Hard drive to transfer my files from place to place. And the Freecom Hard Drive has proved to be very durable whilst travelling with it for quite some time. I would recomend this to any person who needs a backup/storage device as you wont find a better product for value for money.... Read review
