 Stops working randomly.. September 7, 2010
gadgetguy
I have received this item in good, faultless packaging. Opened it up, and hooked it on. Started working properly and went on. However, after 3 weeks of seldom usage, it now suddenly stopped working -neither reckognized by the os, nor reaching a constant speed for reading.
Head of the disk reader is setting back to parking position and repositioning to the start up center, randomly over and over again (you can hear the loud enough sound it makes hitting back to parking pos.), and not just getting to read the disk. I have kept the item in perfect condition, with no drops or hits, have used it only on two computers, that have perfect records with peripherials.
I can't believe the situation. It's a Toshiba disk, and it's broke in it's third week !! Amazon has verified that I can get a refund or replacement with no problem.. So I have asked for a return label for refund. However it's too late to ship it overseas, so I am stuck with it. Thanks to toshiba !!
Regarding all the complaints, it is very possible that on this lot of production, Toshiba has a high rate of defect, and one might assume that as a reason for the lowered prices. Although the error has not yet repeated, it is well known that such temporary failures are solid signes of further fatal malfunctions. So now I either have to take the risk of an upcoming data loss or trash the 98$..
If you are willing to buy this product, note that you will possibly be taking a high enough risk of getting one of the defectives out of the production line. So beware.. To remind, Amazon has a 30 day guarantee back.. Beyond that, you will have to deal with toshiba, which seems not to have a good record of customer services according to customer reviews here.
 Great 1TB portable hard drive that fits in your pocket! September 6, 2010
Adam (Chicago, IL)
Great red design, so small that it fits in your pocket, easy to use. Whoever has lots of music, videos, data, you will sooner or later need this. Why go for less capacity when you will end up needing more? I'd rather have one portable external hard drive than 2-3.
Love it. September 6, 2010

This thing is perfect! Size of a pack of cards. Very quiet. Fast.
I don't use the sofetware that came with it though. Without clicking on anything to let it install, I moved it to a subdirectory in case I every need it in the future.
No installation. I just plugged the drive into the USB port and it showed right up in Windows Explore (Vista) as another drive. I just highlight and copy in the files I want to backup.
Some others have complained that it cannot use a standard USB cable, only the one it comes with. I tried mine with another USB cable and it worked fine.
Very Nice. September 5, 2010

I was skeptical of buying a Toshiba HD as I have always bought Seagate or Western Digital. The price was excellent and the previous ratings were good. I am glad I bought this product. It is very quiet and works extremely well. I am a Mac use and other than creating a new MacOS partition this was very easy to work with like it should be.
I have had this product for 3 weeks now. I hope it lasts.

Drive works great for backup but .... difficult to safely remove from computer without shutdown.
