I'm a video professional and was introduced to these drives a little more than a year ago. They are of incredible quality. The most reliable and fast drives you can buy. They are considerably more money than your regular seagate or western digital, but I feel that they have superior chipsets and hitachi drives - which justifies the cost. We own two of these, a G-Raid, and a G-Speed eS - so we've invested a lot of money in this company and they have not let us down.

Highly recommended.

I've used many external drives over time and this is the only brand that I recommend. It has been solid and dependable, not problems what-so-ever. Speedy drive and small footprint is impressive. Having an on/off switch is a big bonus too.
Works out-of-the-box with mac and Time machine.

5.0 out of 5 stars You Can't Go Wrong With The G-Tech, March 22, 2008

This review is from: G-Technology 913006-01 1.0TB Quad-Interface Storage (Personal Computers)

After some research, I settled on this G-Tech external drive, namely because of its Quad-interface. Although my Alu iMac (or any Apple computer) does not have an eSATA interface at the time of this writing, I thought that by purchasing this drive, I'd be thinking ahead. The 3-Year Warranty was also a nicety.

The drive works without a hitch. I attached it to my iMac using the Firewire800 interface, and it was basically good-to-go. The case is very sturdy and attractive. My only minor complaint is that, for a "fanless" design, it is a bit loud . . louder than the iMac that it sits next to.
