Customer Reviews
Can't go wrong!
2007-01-11Reviewer: Denis O'DonovanTop class drive - quiet, quick and good value. Plug it in and away you go. I bought is as a backup and to store pics and music. It does the job to perfection. Powers down when inactive for 10 minutes and when running is quiet enough that you don't even hear it. Just make sure you use the rubber feet supplied!
Once again delivery from Komplett is excellent.

2006-10-15Reviewer: David NolanI bought one of these for my sister as backup for her data. Lovely looking bit of kit. Keeps cool even with no internal fans. Quiet operation but can vibrate quite a bit depending on the surface its left on. The unit powers down automatically if not used after 10 minutes. Comes highly recommended.

2006-09-18Reviewer: endadeworldFantastic value and flawless performance; I'd recommend this product to anyone. Although perhaps a little big for an external hard drive it's cool and almost silent operation, appealing appearance and consistent performance more than make up for it. I also like the way it automatically powers down when not in use (although this option can be turned off if desired). The 250GB model works out the cheapest per GB of all the models and at €110 it represents fantastic value. I'd definitely consider buying another when I inevitably fill this one.
