not bad for two stars.......2007-11-25

For $50 it wasn't bad, but overall I don't like it just because it's clunky and you have to plug it into the wall for it to work. Other than the lack of convenience, I didn't have any problems tranferring files onto it. For the cheap price, it served my needs for the moment. I will probably give it away eventually, but it will work for now. Looking back I'd probably spend the extra cash for something more portable.

Worked good til a few days.......2007-11-13

I received the product quickly after I paid for it, and upon receiving it, it was in new condition. As I plugged in the hard drive into my computer, it was instantly recognized, and I was able to use it as I would any usb flash drive. But after a few days, maybe a week and a half, it stopped working. When I would turn it on, the light would flash red for a second, and then go blue, but there would be no "thinking" flashing of the light, and the computer would no longer register the hard drive as connected. I tried to go the website to see what could be done about this problem, but upon typing in the site, I got a 404 error. I am now displeased with this product, and would likely not purchase another product from this seller.

Great Drive.......2007-11-11

This is a good price on a great little drive I see some people talking about it getting hot but I have not had any problems with mine. I just plugged it in and I was all set to go.

bad device.......2007-05-13

Cavalry 160 GB HD.......2007-04-26

I got this HD in yesterday to back up my MP3 player so I did not have to load up my internal HD on my computer.
Product works just as described so far, plug in the USB cable turn it on an the computer recognizes it right away.
The HD itself makes no noise, very quite. It is also a nice size and does not take up any room at all.
The unit does get a tad on the warm side when on for extended times but it is not all that bad.
My only gripe at the moment is I don't understand how the stupid side stand is supposed to be mounted to the HD itself.

If I run into problems in the future I will update my review but so far so good.

Solid as a Rock!.......2007-09-24

We were lucky to find another of this model through Amazon (last years model), we own 2 others as well, this one is for my son's dorm room. My son has a laptop and the smaller drives use 1 or 2 USB ports (1 for info, 1 for power) to run them correctly, and most Manufacturers suggest using the computer's ports versus a 'powered hub' ports. There are other external hard drives out there that have more capacity for the dollar, but this one is built like a brick house, runs flawlessly, and doesn't have all the annoying built-in software packages now included on the newer versions. Seagate is the best, PERIOD! They have the best hub design there is out there which is the cause of most hard drives failures....no other brand can run as long without error codes or complete failure causing the loss of delicate information. We use it for music, photos, and back-up. Simple drag & drop operation....no formatting issues at all. If you can find one of these...BUY IT!

Good Product.......2007-05-15

I had no problems. I was attracted to the great deal this prodct offered and thought I might have to sacrifice something in the process but I really didn't. It works great!

Free Seagate Backup Software Available Online.......2007-05-15

I purchased this Seagate hard drive and have been extremely pleased with it. It is indeed virtually silent and blazingly fast. It backed up 18 GB in 12 minutes for me. It also was recognized in about 1 second by my computer after I connected to the USB port, so there is no down time when using it.

It is true that it comes with no software, which is puzzling and a little annoying. However, there is an easy resolution. Go to Seagate's web site and download their free, excellent DiscWizard software. You'll need a broadband connection to do it because the file is 100 MB, but the software is extremely easy to use and enables you to backup software more easily than drag and drop, especially if you wish to back up your whole computer. You can also use the software for other functions, like creating a second disk drive. The software was extremely easy to install and to use once downloaded, although there is one trick: the software requires at least one Seagate hard drive present on your computer before downloading or before working once downloaded. But as long as the external Seagate hard drive is hooked into the USB port you'll have no problem.

I hope this helps! It's a cheap but excellent product.

Question.......2007-05-14

The desciption of this item is misleading. Is it ST3160812U2-RK or ST3160203U2-RK that is being sold? The title says ST3160203U2-RK but the product details says ST3160812U2-RK !

Excellent so far.......2007-05-09

It took literally about a minute to set up with XP Home.

The drive comes formatted with the FAT32 file system; you'll need to format or convert it to NTFS. (You can use it with FAT32, but the filesize is limited to 4GB.)

Someone posted instructions on converting to NTFS, but I got an error message when I attempted it. However, Microsoft recommends formatting a drive if the drive doesn't have data you need to preserve. Just right click on the drive icon in My Computer and click on "Format." I kept the default options, which included NTFS, and everything works fine.

Now I've got my documents and email all backed up, so I know that a hard disk crash will be an inconvenience rather than a disaster. Overnight I'll do a full-system backup.

I backed up 18 GB direct to the external drive in less than a half hour. After reading that someone was having issues with transfer speed, I copied a 900 MB folder to the drive; it took less than a minute.

A fair value.......2007-02-10

At the time of purchase, this was one of the best values I could find. The LED (which indicates whether it's idle or working green/red), however went dead after a year. Still, I give it four stars because the only thing I can compare it to is a Western Digital external hard drive I have that is unreliable (that's why I bought the AcomData).

DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT.......2007-02-03

i bought this a few months ago,
pretty expensive but i thought it would be nice cuz of all its features. it stopped working, it tooke me 35 minutes to get someone on the phone and they said tech support was unavailable. I decided to remove the sleeve to see if there was a way of reseting the button. i did not intend to open it but as soon as i pulled on the sleeve, the drive open and after 10 minutes of removing the whole sleeve i found a sticker saying the warranty was void if it was opened. i didnt open it, it fell open. and i called again and said it was my fault because the sleeve was not meant to be removed and the sticker used to be on the outside --- on their old model. so yeah, dont buy from this company, this is a cheap product that will get you bad results. an easy waste of money and time.

Great hard drive.......2006-11-27

Real specs of it

160GB hard drive: when formated comes out to 153GB as hard drives are rated in 1000MB= 1GB but all computers go by 1024MB= 1GB so overall space on the hard drive is reduced to 153GB
______________________________________

The hard drive is very quiet and you can barely hear it (you only notice it when it's loading)

The case of the drive acts as a heatsink so DON'T stack it. the hard drive already gets hot enough (having it seated vertically causes more heat than horizontally)

Problems: The light on the front of it (1 plastic dome with 2 high output LED lights)
The light is extremely bright (I covered the light on mine with some electrical tape with 2 pinholes poked through it)

The drive has a raw uncached read speed of 31 MB/s and a write speed of 26 MB/s

inside of the external enclosure is a Hitachi brand hard drive.

the external enclosure isint 100% sealed, it has 1 small vent in the back and 1 vent in the front which is hidden behind the front panel the front panel leaves about a 3mm space away from the front vent.

overall, everything is solid and quality.

Excellent.......2006-09-24

I just received the hard drive. It is completely silent, sleek looking, and mounts consistently on my iMac G5. The only thing I don't like is the blue light on it is REALLY bright and goes bazerk when it is being accessed. Maybe that's more of a personality issue than a tech issue. But it is definitely a good fit for my Mac.

Simple to use........2006-08-30

I bought this hard drive to store music, movies, etc. I've had it almost two weeks, and here are my impressions so far:

Pros: Easy to hook up, plug and play for XP, the stand that comes with it is very sturdy, the hard drive itself feels solid, simple design.

Cons: Blue LED on the front is to bright, usable space on the drive only reads as 150 GB, the power brick that comes with the drive is fairly large.

Overall, this is a good hard drive for the money. Besides a few design quirks it has, I'd recomend this drive to anyone looking for a inexpensive external HD.
