    Great FireWire Drive
    This is a great product. It is a solid performer, fast and reliable. I needed a FireWire drive so I could make a clone of my MacBook Pro as an emergency backup.

    I was filling up my iBook hard drive with iTunes. I shifted the library off to an external drive. I had some problems with USB drives on my iBook thinking they had been improperly ejected because they weren’t geting enough power from the USB. The WD I was using had no external power supply capability and I couldn’t use the “double-USB” cord because my iPod was plugged in as well. I order this Iomega eGo FireWire. When it arrived, I read it was already formatted for Mac (the others I had to reformat). I plugged it into the fire wire port and within 10 seconds, the iBook recognised it. I pointed my iTunes library to it, plugged the old external into the “double USB” cord to prevent problems and hit “consolitate library”. The iBook and eGo did the rest. Since then (about 4 months so far) not a single problem. FINALLY!!! I highly recommend the FireWire if you have a Mac. I also have eGo USB only versions for my PC (cheaper, but I recommend reformatting to NTFS from the Fat-32 so you can deal with files over 4GB).

    Hand warmer
    I found that when I used USB to connect this drive to my desktop PC, at the same time that my Western Digital USB drive was attached, they would conflict.

    Perfect with Time Machine
    In looking for an external hard drive to connect with Time Machine on my MacBook Pro, I was drawn to this model because it is pre-formatted for Mac and was the right capacity and…

    I think this hard drive is great; It’s lightweight but rugged, and very very attractive! The “Ruby Red” is more of a “Magenta Pink”. . . and yes, it DOES look like a whiskey flask, as a previous commentor said! So, I’m a Mac fan, and I haven’t had any problems with it. I haven’t needed to plug both ends of the USB in order to get enough power; just the main one. I also have one of the newer MacBook Pros (less than 3 years old), so that may be the fix right there. It reads and writes EXTREMELY FAST. I was really impressed. It works great with Time Machine, too. . . It’s a great deal for this price: it works! (and looks like you spent a whole lot more on $$$ it!)

    Very good!!!
    It is an enclosure so you can switch 2.5″ SATA HDD if you wish. The product is very good and works with all my machines. I some of them is needed the two usb connectors.

    This seems to be a good product. Interfaces well since it has both USB 2 and Firewire 400 inputs. You may want to get a power source to plug it into if you want to use this for more than just periodic backups or “mobile-only” use. The only issue I have with this hard drive (and it’s a big one IMHO) is that it generates more heat than any laptop I’ve ever used, and I’ve worked on the worst “heaters” of all time! I was very surprised to find this out after only having it plugged into my MacBook for 5 minutes. It makes the exterior VERY warm, almost “hot,” so when you go to pick it up after using it to backup your computer’s hard drive or after a session of mobile recording, don’t be so shocked that you drop it. It won’t burn you, but it will surprise you if you’re not thinking about it.

    I have had this for almost 6 weeks. So far it is working great. It comes with both a firewire cable and a usb cable.

    Iomega eGo 500 GB
    Excellent, compact product. Good price. It runs a little hot and it would be nice if it could be stacked somehow.

    Iomega eGo external hard drive
    I am very happy with this product. I had overloaded the hard drive on my Mac mini, and rather than buy a new computer, I chose this 320 GB external hard drive.

    Superb value – iomega eGo 320 GB drive
    Works a treat. I use it to back up my Macbook and it works as advertised. No problem – plug it in and away you go.

    Great!!
    It is backing up my files with no problems and has plenty of space. It is great for my mac with the firewire and usually gets finished with a backup within a reasonable time.
