Customer Reviews
This drive worked great as I used it for a cross country motorcycle ride and was using my 2008 MacBook Pro. I loved being able to have the external storage be bus powered.
I would recommend this product to a friend!

Works well and worth the investment. The only minus: the LCD display is difficult to read from an angle, even when you try to vary the contrast. Aside from that, it's an overall good product
I would recommend this product to a friend!

So I see the video and think this will be quick. Then just the trial I had to back out the drive bay screws made me think I would break it. Those screws are tightened way to much! Once the screws were out it was plop, plop, fizz, fizz what a relief it is. I found the area below the unit gets really hot and after a quarter inch spacing it all cooled down. Definitely needs that space! I'm using the MAXImus with two other FW 800 drives and there was no issue with the additional drives. All is well and running great!
I would recommend this product to a friend!
