    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Speed, connectivity, flexibility, and versatility

    Weaknesses:Unable to create private/authenticated shares for MacOS

    Overall Evaluation: I bought this drive to set up on my home network. It was as simple as connecting it via ethernet to the router and that's it. It's immediately available throughout the network- wirelessly or wired. I set up shares and each machine/user was able to get to a secured space. Unfortunately the username/password authentication isn't compatible with MacOS, so that's the only drawback. Throughput on the network is amazing- as high as 60Mbps when wired, or 25Mbps when wireless on my 802.11g network.

    Duration of ownership: 10 Days

    Strengths: Simple software interface, large capacity

    Weaknesses:

    Overall Evaluation: I had this drive up and running in a few minutes. Just connected to my wi-fi router, installed the software and it was there. I can protect directories and share them with the family. The performance on the first transfer was limited by the wi-fi, but overall performance has been good. The software loads an icon in the system tray for easy access also.
