This review is from: Fujitsu Mobile RE25U300J 300GB 2.5-Inch USB 4200RPM 8MB External Hard Drive (Personal Computers)

I own two of these drives and both have worked well for me. Maybe I'm just lucky given the other review posted here, but I have not had any problems at all. I like this drive because it has a good hard plastic case and is very convenient for travel. The cable is permanently attached and short (about 6 inches) and stores neatly away in the drive itself. This works fine most of the time, but you may need a USB extension cable ($3-4) depending on where you place the drive. Also, should the cable fail (rare) that could be an issue.

This drive runs slower than some, but that also means less heat and makes these drives stackable as they get barely warm in use. The drive feels rugged and well built, has rubber feet attached (not stick on) and an activity light on top that is not overly bright.

All in all, I think this is a decent drive. I use them to backup and archive files from my laptops and find them well suited for that purpose. You can play music and video off them as well. In fact, I came here looking to see if they were still available as I would definitely buy a couple more if the price was right.

Add a star if use these mainly for travel, they are one of the best for that purpose.

This review is from: Fujitsu Mobile RE25U300J 300GB 2.5-Inch USB 4200RPM 8MB External Hard Drive (Personal Computers)

this is the worst product in the market .

I have returned it directly to Fujitsu 3 times , via RMA given by them . Finally gave up .

Got a review from Microcentre guys also , they have the highest returns on this disk.

Its a 12 mm drive , which is thick than the usual laptop drives of 9mm thickness.

Would ask no one should buy this
