I thought this was well priced so I took the plunge.

I have a samsung 250 gig external and I find it way better than the western digital.
The usual story of it been way short of the size it advertises as (500gig really is 465gig so thats 35 gig short, I dont know how the lying tossers get away with it, thats false advertising)

Slow at referencing the drive, annoying software bundled with it on the drive, keeps clicking and making noises like its struggling.

I Would never, ever, invest in one of these again, my other external runs rings around this one.

First of all, I'd like to mention that I've owned by Cruzer Micro for about 2 years - I only have the 2GB version but thought I'd review on here seeing as this is an awesome price for a high quality memory stick.

Ever since getting this bit of kit its worked a treat, despite being plastic, its VERY durable. By being plastic, its also VERY light, I've many times thought I may have lost it, as its so small and light in my pocket! Not sure if thats a good thing!

Also, the USB slider feature is very good - one would think that the slider may get a bit flimsy and loose after much use, but this is not the case, its still as tightly locked and good to use as the first day I got it.

And beleive me, I got this about ... Read More:

Excellent little piece of kit. Simple to use - no real installation as it sets itself up. I'm not particularly 'techy' so I don't know whether it's fast or not but it does all I want it to do - backing up pictures, documents etc. and with the included software you can take your own desktop images, programmes and work with you to use on any computer. Jolly clever.

I've had the hard drive for about 2 hours, and so far it has been amazing. I literally plugged it into my computer and it recognised it straight away and now I'm backing up all of my data. Can't fault it! Plus, for the price it was, I'd say it's a real bargin.

The first thing you NEED to know about this drive is that it needs two of your PC's USB slots - and they have to be the slots on your actual computer, not on an add-on hub (the extra few inches of cable on the hub will be enough to stop your drive from working.)

I'd assumed that it would also come with a 'proper' mains adaptor, like some of my Western Digital drives, but no. You can *only* use USB slots, and they have to be the ones on the PC.

When I discovered this, I started to dislike this product. And from there, things got worse.

The front of the drive has a pretty (but oversized and power-consuming) light panel. It takes up the whole front side of the drive, is on constantly (changing in intensity when the drive ... Read More:

Does what it says on the can. Purchased this beautiful black box 6 months ago. I have an iMac. I plugged it in, the icon appeared, I clicked on the icon and started loading. Thats it!

Came in nifty time from amazon, and a decent little package.

It's extremely light, compared to the last one i had, and the light feature when you plug it in is a pretty good party trick.

I agree with other people, i think the software is not needed. it's a good idea, but it just gets in the way. (you can always just delete it though).

alround, this is a great little gadget, which looks great and works at a pretty decent speed.

brilliant!

Excellent. easy to use. Just plug in and I ready to go. (systems detects mass storage device and installs without issue). It even recognize the the drive as Freeagent. Already comes with NTFS formatted so I didn't even have to re-format the drive unlike some other competitor brands. What more it has 5 year warrantee. Data exchange was fast and easy. (make sure you plug in to a usb2.0 port as this makes a difference in speed of data transfer.)

Pros:

Tiny, feels solid (metal and a rubbery "skin" for protection)

Had a 2GB version before, both live up to expectations...fast and durable.

As stated by previous reviewer, the cap doesn't fit onto the backend and if you are forgetful it may get lost.

Formatted capacity according to windows is 7.47GB, which is to be expected with any drive as some amount of space is lost during the formatting process, but be aware of this fact when buying. You do not get to use the full 8GB of space.
