5 of 5 No Issues Saturday, April 18, 2009
Dave from Sacramento, California  

I opened the box, followed the instructions, and it just worked. Sounds boring, but I it is very refreshing to have something do what you hoped it would do. It is a bit noisy, but I find adequate cooling more important than fan noise. I can turn the storage off when I'm not using it. The instructions could use some polishing, but at least it HAS instructions! Overall, the Fantom is working much better than a couple of others I tried with the RAID function.

5 of 5 Unbearably Loud! Friday, February 27, 2009
A Customer from Hoboken, NJ  
Upon opening this drive, I was very impressed with the overall packaging and feel of the drive itself. Turning it on, however, proved to be a different story. As soon as I flipped the switch, the drive began to emit a hairdryer-like woosh as air was sucked through the enclosure by the tiny fan. It was so unbearably loud that regardless of the speed and options that the drive offers, I had to return it for a refund. If Fantom Drives could get the fan right, this would be a great product!

4 of 5 Raid 1 - ESata - Good Customer Service Thursday, May 15, 2008
J from NJ  
I had an initial issue trying to figure out how to format the drive. Called customer service and got someone from Fantom service within minutes. They walked me through the process and I'm formatted as RAID1 (which provide mirrored 465GB of usable space). I'm using a SIIG ExpressCard ESata adapter on my Dell Laptop with Windows Vista and all works fine. The drive is blazing fast with the ESata connection. Only issue is sometimes I can't get the drive to dismount using "Safely Remove Hardware" and I need to shut down the computer. Unit is solidly built, noiseless when the fan or drive is not actively running, and fairly quiet when running. Customer service is great. For the price, don't think you can beat it.
