Does what it is supposed to do

September 19, 2008

Verified Purchase

I have had this drive for about a week now. Contrary to the CNET review, very easy initial setup with the assistance of the iomega online chat help (the written and online documentation are awful). I used them 4 or 5 times for questions. There was little to no wait and they were very helpful. I am accessing the drive over my home network from a mac desktop, a windows XP laptop and a windows vista laptop without any real problems. The only issue I have is that vista does not remember the logon password so it prompts you for this everytime you log into the computer - and this is a vista issue not an issue with the drive. Also, the print server does not support multifunction machines so if you intend on using it with a printer-fax-copier then you are out of luck. Finally, the blue light on the front of the drive is very bright and annoying - for the life of me I can't figure out why this is necessary. It is not noisy and does not run hot (I coppied 30GB from a non-network external USB drive to the Iomega drive and it was barely warm after writing for several hours straight). This external drive is connected directly to the Iomega drive BTW and is therefore also accessable over my network - a really nice feature.

Bottom line - this is a relatively inexpensive network storage solution that works as advertised. So far I am very happy with it.

Great disk, when it works

March 17, 2013

Verified Purchase

This was easy to use, easy to install, and quite nice when it works. Unfortunately, it never works for more than 24-36 hours, after which it can only be restarted by unplugging it from the wall and then plugging it back in (if the power switch is supposed to restart, it doesn't).

I initially rated this 1 star based on it's inconsistent performance. I was eventually able to contact Iomega customer service (which doesn't have exactly convenient hours). They suggested changes in the (default) software settings (disable Media Server) which appear to have made the device reliable. If these are "known issues", as the service center said, why does it get set up this way? Still - it now works and I'm now happy.

The worst product of year - 2007.

December 22, 2007

Verified Purchase

1. Very Noisy - it is louder that two PC together working in the same room. I don't think anyone wants this working in close proximity from the sleeping area.

2 The print server capability is not able to be accessed from the Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). Even so theier spec stated - "........

* Mac OS X 10.2.7 or higher ......"

Tech support when I called them admitted that they dodn't know how to deploy the priner access from Leopard and consider it is not computable with Leopard. (contrary to the info in the spec)

3. Useless documentation - the only one way to get some help is to search their website FQA. And as a fact, the latest Mac OS they mentioning is "Tiger".- version prior to "Leopard".

I have returned this product - that was the most successful and happy step in this purchase. Thanks to Amazon great service.

Great for mass storage

July 12, 2008

Verified Purchase

I bought this drive about 8 months ago after banging my head on other Iomega NAS drives. Compared to the 150D series, it is a snap to put up. Also it doesn't disappear when you make any network changes. I never turn it off, and it has been running solidly with no problems through a couple of power failures.

I use it for storing AVI files and backups with RAID turned off. Have had no problems with any file types. I did gain some experience with Iomega set up when I was working on the 150D, so I probably had a step up with the Iomega software. Other than that, no problems whatsoever.

Good value despite limitations as NFS server

July 19, 2008

Verified Purchase

Physically, this is a nice product - good package, runs very quiet (despite other comments here), and consumes a very low 17 watts of AC power.

Quick Start Guide is laughable -- very brief, but entertaining as it is in about 16 languages. User manual on CD is better, but it definitely does not tell the whole story if you are interested in advanced use, such as with NFS. If you already know the ropes, you will manage OK, however.

I am using this box as an NFS server for my Linux-based network. However, there are many limitations. Mainly, it does not support much of the normal NFS service. It does not store incoming files' UID/GID. All files have UID=GID=254. File update times are not preserved.

If you want to use rsync for file mirroring, as I do, you will find that the NFS issues above will prevent normal operation unless you specify --size-only, and even then protections and file ownership info will be lost. (There is always tar!)

I am putting up with this because the price is right, and the package is nice. In principle, you can rip out the drives and build your own NAS around a convenient PC, and it would provide full NFS capability.

Iomega 33872 StorCenter 1 TB Hard Drive

December 25, 2007

Verified Purchase

This is a fairly good product to use for data storage, file and printer sharing at home. However, it can be difficult to setup for a person who does not have an IT background. I also discovered that after reboot or startup of my computer, I have to login to the drive with a username and password, even after it has been mapped, in order to gain access to the device. I have also had to reset the device back to factory default settings once because it would not recognize the attached printers. However, this approach was successful and did not erase the previous configuration for raid or the shared folders. Despite the issues mentioned above, I still believe that the Iomega StorCenter 1 TB Hard Drive is a good product for home use.
