A must-have for reliable backups. This was up and running on a Mac osX in no time. I highly recommend using time-machine or similar auto-backup program.

Fits nicely in a rack, and that helps to contain the small bit of operating noise. The noise would only be a problem if running this as a main drive in a really close-quarters recording environment. You do have to be careful with the FW800 cable as it gets pulled out more easily than fw400 or usb, in my experience. close [-] Excellent hard drive

Not only are the read/write speeds noticibly faster than my old drive, I also love the sturdy chassis that will take any bumps from being in a well used music room.
