This drive is exactly as it is pictured. its small lightweight and compact. i bought mine a couple weeks ago and have had no problems with the way it works. i would have to recommend this to anyone who needs a little more space on their computer or to anyone who just needs an easier way to transport a lot of data.

Since i'm a older studet, i need to get the most bang for my dollar and i did here. It's fast and definately easy to connect. i just wish it had some rubber or some thing on the bottom so that it would not be so easy to slide off of the table or desk.
And it looks EXACTLY like the picture and the measurement are correct in the facts sheet.

This thing did everything I wanted it to do. For the most part, it was plug and play. It's certainly compact and downloaded my files, music and images quickly. I take it with me almost every day and I haven't had any problems with it.

 
disappointing software
By HotshotVerified Reviewer from Central Illinois on 3/26/2008
Pros:
Fast Connectivity, Quiet, Super small size
Cons:
Freezes Easily
Describe Yourself:
Tech Savvy
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The RETROSPECT backup software was not very user friendly. I want to create progressive b/ups that are not compressed but did not get any cooperation from the software as it is. Also, the very first TOTAL backup froze at about 20% and would not disconnect or allow a shut down without holding down the power button. I am returning it immediately and exchanging for something else

Don't believe that other review. This is A STEAL!!
I bought it two days ago (3/21/08) and it works fast and quiet. It looks exactly like the one pictured. It's small and portable. Looks great with my macbook pro.

 
Image is incorrect
By east from san jose, ca on 2/8/2008

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Be wary of ordering this product if you are considering its stylish appearance. The image is incorrect. Model 33600 is a boxy looking drive rather than the sleek image pictured here.
