I have experienced no problems so far. My only complaints would be That the fan is slightly loose and has a tendency to scrape sometimes and make it noisy when it first starts up. The software that come swiht it is really very nice and it is very quiet. The only thing I think AE could add to improve it would be a utility to do a low level format of the drive and to make the nda for setting the boot partition to select the one you press return on not the way it is now where you have to use the arrows to highlight the partition name and then press the space abr. So I'm picky so sue me. My only other thing I feel worth mentioning is that you can only have 4 active partitions at once as opposed to the Inner Drive which I think will handle more. If you have any questions that this has raised feel free to mail me. The Insane Hermit The Zip-Man qig@mentor.cc.purdue.edu Chris Eleveld p.s. you guys have sigs I have lots of names so there :-P
