Works Great
Strengths: * Quick format to NTFS * very sturdy / well made case * fast xfer speed * discreet and does not make a sound
Weakness: * kind of heavy for it's size
Overall great drive. Just got it tonight and it was such an easy set-up. You literally plug it in and turn it on. I also wanted to format to NTFS format (default is FAT32). I've seen some other reviews / posts where they said this took a long time. It literally took seconds.
The transfer speed is also very good using a USB connection. Overall, I'm very impressed and quite happy with my purchase.
As far as the weaknesses, the drive is quite heavy for it's size but the case is a hard metal so it's definitely sturdy. It's just not the kind of drive you want to carry around with you.
