Reviews & Ratings for 1TB DriveStation Combo External Hard Drive - USB and FireWire 400 buffalo storage has always been a price leader. i use the drive for bulk backups and mass storage. It isn't the fastest drive in the world, but for near-line storage, it works great.

Reviews & Ratings for 1TB DriveStation Combo External Hard Drive - USB and FireWire 400 So far everything is good no issue. There is no fan and the unit runs a bit warm. Neither fan nor heat is good for long-term reliability. I prefer the fanless aluminum heat sink casing.

Reviews & Ratings for 1TB DriveStation Combo External Hard Drive - USB and FireWire 400 I bought this because I needed to replace a stolen back up HD (yeah they not only stole my computer they stole the back up drive as well, a real bummer!). I wanted a firewire drive because for sustained transfer they ARE much faster then USB2 drives. This drive is great, it has a big capacity and a fast connection, just what I wanted!

Reviews & Ratings for 1TB DriveStation Combo External Hard Drive - USB and FireWire 400 The drive is fast, and very easy to use. I especially like the USB 2.0 and Firewire 400 capability. It helps be back up or transfer files from PC to Mac without problems. The only thing I wasn't wild about was the Fat32 format it's shipped in.

Reviews & Ratings for 1TB DriveStation Combo External Hard Drive - USB and FireWire 400 I bought this at a recommendation from a friend. This is a solid external 1G hard drive at an unbeatable price. I am using it to backup my iMac music and video files. It's quiet and comes with a backup software that you can download from the company website. It has an auto energy-saver mode that puts the drive to sleep when inactive. I recommend this drive to those looking to purchase 1G external drive.
