Lot of bang for the price. Works great with Acronis back up software for fast full backups.

The software for this product is very confusing. It is written and displays like a computer software engineer would explain it rather than the general public that may use it. It needs simpler explanations and a clearer picture of what it is actually backing up. I can't tell if my stuff is backed up or not, so I am doing in manually.
