 I like Tosh drives |
| Review Date: August 9, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Gadgester, Mother Earth |
I have half a dozen Toshiba portable drives and some of them have served me well for several years. They are dependable and quick -- with the 500GB portable drive I get about 20MB/s read and write speeds (tested on two recent HP laptops, one with Intel and the other with AMD both in succession Vista), which is half of USB 2.0 high-speed's hypothetical max throughput. The drives can be used with the PS3 and Macs out-of-box, but for best consequences with XP/Vista/Win7 you can convert it to NTFS without reformatting or losing existing data via a DOS command: convert g: /fs:ntfs [where g: is the drive letter, or you can use a volume name like "tosh_500g" if your drive is already named tosh_500g].
Because this drive (like other portable drives) does not use a separate power line -- it draws power directly from the USB port -- your computer must have a powered USB port to use this. Nearly all recent desktops and laptops have this feature, but if you experience any problem, it may be due to an not satisfactorily powered USB port (or USB hub), so try another port or another computer.
In addition to being a quick 5,400RPM drive, this Toshiba includes some valuable features:
- Backup software that backs up system files in addition to fixed files and folders (fantastic for system recovery!)
- Password-care for your data owing to encryption
- Drive space alert lets you know when free space is in succession low
- Toshiba's well-known shock-absorbing technology, also used in iPods.
BTW, this drive is also a fantastic value because at bestow a 320GB Seagate portable drive costs over [...], plus tax. |
Fantastic product!

| This hard drive is fantastic! I had a before clunker that took up a lot of space. The Toshiba 500 GB easily plugs into a USB port and doesn't demand an additional power source. It is very small and easily fits into my computer bag. I urge this hard drive for anyone looking for a way to store a lot of notes and not take up a lot of space. |
Fantastic Portable

| I bought this because I was looking for a portable hard drive that was durable enough to travel from home to classroom to wherever. I holds over 100GB of music and all the pics I've ever taken or been given since 2005 (about 20 GB) and all my lesson plans (20 GB). It's been jarred, dropped by a 2 year ancient and it's still ticking. |

I was looking for a excellent portable outdoor hard-drive for a small time (only online and not only at Amazon.com). Ultimately, I in the end slimmed my options down to lacking a Toshiba. User specs seemed about the best to me and recommendations were all excellent. I found different variations from innumerable sellers. Amazon had the latest and newest version, which appears to be the one I am writing the review for, at a lesser price than what the other vendors were selling out-dated-models of 500Gd Toshiba hard-drives for. That I liked. Be precise not to buy the ancient models from on-line sellers, they usually do not specify between the older models and the latest released models. Subsidy was very prompt too, and shipping was handled well.
I really don't know a lot about hard drives, space, or even computers. The drive itself works well. The instillation process was confusing if one does not know the variation or benefits between using the drive as a FAT32 or NTFS. Even without formatting it to NTFS apparently it still can be used FAT32 on Windows. Now and again when I plug unrelated outdoor storage units into my computer, like my 1Gb Flash disk, the BackUp Now EZ software attempts to use them to backup my computer. Maybe, their is an simple way to make the software function only with the outdoor storage units that I select, that I simply have not yet exposed.
I bought the Caselogic brand hard-drive case that Amazon urge along with the drive. The drive does fit with some extra room. The small supple type notes strap inside the case keeps the drive from moving. After looking at the drive I am pleased I bought a case. I would urge that anyone who does travel, to get a case for it.
I consider it a excellent investment made and money well spent. |
So far so excellent...

Quick transfers on XP (usb 1.0) and Vista (usb 2.0).
Comes in Fat32 so it's ready for PS3 out the box.
Very small firewire to USB cable so be prepared.It's not too terrible.
It does get warm quickly so I wouldn't leave it plugged in for
extended periods. Transfer yo data. Get in, get out...
Fantastic price and function.
