||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product and very large store. Highly recommended
I would recommend this to a friendGood hardware, poor communication
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The drive itself does what it should, and it is visually pleasing. It came with software that would not install after numerous attempts and wasted time. Then I called customer support and learned that it was obsolete. I had to download something else from their website. I think the drive should have come with a warning label that the user would have to call customer support, since the software already on it was obsolete.
