Summary: Simple Tech 320 gb USB HD
Comment: the order process was good, the drive works fine, installation of the drive and the software was easy, the backup software that comes with the drive is awkward to use and not very configurable, in the end I sacrificed the 1-button function for a more configurable backup software

Summary: Impressive!
Comment: This External Hard Drive is great for backing up my computer. It holds all of my pictures, music, etc. and there is still plenty of room left. This is a great buy for the price, and it works great!

Summary: HORRIBLE
Comment: This external seemed like a good value, but a WEEK after I had gotten it, and trusted it with all my music and pictures, it fell about a foot and hasn't worked since. I'm pretty sure I have lost everything. NOT A GOOD VALUE AT ALL... THIS IS A CHEAP RIP OFF!!

Summary: Hurricane Recovery
Comment: I own this exact drive and during Hurricane Gustav my house flooded and it fell over into the water. The drive was unpowered at the time at least. I took apart the whole unit and let it air dry for two weeks. I purchased a new external HD case because I was scared to use the Simpletech one and I dont have a PC with a SATA interface and guess what! I was able to extract every bit and byte of data from my drive. not a drop of water entered the drive. I don't know if there are cheaply sealed drives verses well sealed drives but the one in my Simpletech External 500 USB was watertight. I had to put the data on a few different computers since it was so much and none of my PCs had that much room. I am about to order another Simpletech 500 Gig drive to put it all back on. I can't say they are all watertight but mine was. So they have my trust.

Summary: Great value and easy to use
Comment: I have 4 of these SimpleTech Pininfarina drives and am very happy with them. They look great and don't take up much physical space. They are very easy to use - just plug it in, connect it to your computer's USB port, and its ready to use. It comes with everything you need so you don't have to buy any additional cables. It comes with some software that lets you back up your computer, but I use the Windows backup utility instead so I never loaded it.
These drives are fast and reliable. I have never run into any problems using them. The first 2 I bought were 500 GB, and the last 2 are 1 TB drives. I think they are a good bargain for the price. The 500 gig drives sell thru Amazon for about $90 and the 1 TB version goes for about $160, which I think is quite a deal. If you need a lot of hard drive storage space the 1 TB is the better deal (they hold about twice as much as the 500 gig drive). Based on my experience, I definitely recommend this drive.
