3 of 5 Working so far Tuesday, April 29, 2008
A Customer from Bloomfield CT  

Description did not say it was Mac formatted. Windows XP could not see it to reformat. Had to put it on a Mac and format as FAT32 then put on XP and format NTFS. Other than that working good.

2 of 5 RAID only. Forget about using it as a 1TB drive Sunday, December 23, 2007
Doc Marten from Philly, PA  
This looks to be a decent quality product. Very easy to set up as a RAID 500gb drive. Fan is a bit loud for a mac user (Steve Jobs hates noisy machines). PC users will find it quiet. However, the support for this is dismal. No driver software included. Just a poorly printed sheet of paper. Web site is weak, with poor organization and limited information. This is advertised as a 1TB drive, but there is no way to turn of the default RAID 1 setting unless you open the drive, killing your warranty. I was frankly mislead by BUY into buying this product. I am returning it and would like a full refund, including my shipping.
