5.0 out of 5 stars
price/performance winner: reliable and cost effective, September 23, 2007
This review is from: SmartDisk FWFL120 FireLite 120 GB 2.5-Inch FireWire Portable Hard Drive (Personal Computers)
I own many of these and I recommend it to the many users I support. In a price/performance comparison, they are the best value around. For better performance you may want to build a SATA on firewire 800, but for the average user, a very good deal. Highly recommended.

failure., September 9, 2007
This review is from: SmartDisk FWFL120 FireLite 120 GB 2.5-Inch FireWire Portable Hard Drive (Personal Computers)
after having this drive for only a couple of months both firewire connection ports went dead. and the drive would not mount. I returned the drive, lost my data, and received a replacement.
now, after having the second drive for a couple of months, again, both firewire connections are dead. drive will not mount... all data unreachable.
the drive was never dropped, was kept in a case... and handled very gently.
I am a cg student and need to travel daily with a large capacity drive.
this is not a reliable drive! do not look at it sideways or it may implode.

Just what I needed., March 10, 2007
This review is from: SmartDisk FWFL120 FireLite 120 GB 2.5-Inch FireWire Portable Hard Drive (Personal Computers)
A great external hard drive for my MacBook. I keep my music and pictures on the hard drive, along with other large files. It's quiet, reliable, and doesn't take up much space.
