 This Drive Failed on me Two Different Times! August 28, 2010

I bought the Iomega Prestige 1.5 TB in June 2009. Worked great, until in January 2010 I started getting a "USB Device Not Recognized" on my Windows XP computer. No matter what I tried, it would not read the device. I called Iomega Support and after a remote diagnosis, they agreed to send me a new drive. I received the second drive in Febuary 2010. It's August 2010 now, and the second brand new drive has started doing the exact same thing again!
In both cases, the data was unrecoverable!
I strongly recommend: DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!
 Small, compact, and wonderful to use August 28, 2010

I got this when my 640 GB hard drive was full. It is a great addition and easy to use. Quick Start Guide is very simple and easy to understand. It didn't take any time at all to get it set up and connected to the computer. It is also compatible with both mac and windows.
 Not durable enough August 15, 2010

I got this external hard drive because it was supposed to be fast. It is in fact fast enough to run music and any files out of it, and without lag. For that it gets the bump up to two stars. My major problem with it is that the only time I moved it from my desk in the six months I've owned it, it broke. I was transferring files to my laptop in the other room, it fell off my nightstand that is about 2.5 feet tall, and it hasn't worked since. I lost all of my information. The most important thing about an external hard drive is to have peace of mind knowing your data is safe. This product failed for me.
An Obsolete Product Sold As New August 13, 2010

I recently purchased this external hard drive from Amazon to use with my Windows 7 system. A major consideration was the fact that well-regarded backup software (Retrospect) was included.
Now that I have installed and used the HW/SW, I find that this version of Retrospect (version 7.6) does not work with Windows 7.
Roxio (which provides support for EMC Retrospect) informs me that a Windows 7 version of Retrospect exists, but I will need to pay $29 for an "upgrade" to Retrospect 7.7.
After contacting Iomega directly, I received the same response.
It is inexcusable for a product to be sold as new when it does not support current operating environments and when there is no disclaimer to this effect.
Several communications with Roxio and Iomega have verified the company policy and have been completely fruitless. I plan to avoid Iomega and Retrospect products in the future.
Nice drive... August 11, 2010

I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality of the drive. Its constructed out of aluminum and has a nice sturdy feel to it. It installed no problem and within minutes I was backing up my desktop PC. I burned about 200G to it without issue. I also like the fact the there is no preinstalled software on the drive. I prefer to choose my own backup programs (Goodsync). However if you want the IoMega SW you can download it. I plan to keep it powered on and spinning for a few days to flesh out any mechanical problems. Take note that this drive neeeds external power and has some "heft" to it. So if your looking for a truly lightweight portable drive you should move on. If I encounter any problems I'll update my review. At this point it seems like an excellent buy...
