    5 of 5 Very Happy Monday, June 02, 2008
    weber@wk.net from Hazel, Ky.  
    I cant tell you how happy I am that I purchased PassportEssential External Hard Drive, with its 250 GB capacity. I normally have two internal hard drives. The main C Drive & another drive. I keep all important information on the 2nd drive, in case the computer crashes I will not loose any info. Through the years I had to put info on CDs so I would not loose it because the 2nd hard drive was too small (80 GB). Now I have all my personal info from the CDs & 2nd drive on the Passport Essential with room to spare. Weekly I copy all new or updated info to Passport.. Again if you can plug in a lamp, you can use PassportEssential.

    5 of 5 Great product for the price Tuesday, May 27, 2008
    Brandon from Tulare, CA  
    i have had this product for about three weeks now and am really impressed. it is small enouhg that it could easily fit into a man's pocket or a womens purse. It serves it's function well with easy plug in transfer. You do not need an additional power source because it is powered by the usb. It also has very fast transfer speeds. If you are looking for a great portable hard drive look no further because this one is a winner.
