Excellent Bang for the Buck

I purchased the G-Safe after filling up my current external HD with photos. I not only wanted to upgrade the size, but also go with a mirrored drive. This is far superior to any of the "off-the-shelf" mirror drives you can find. Very easy to set up: plugged it in and worked on my bro's Mac right away; required a quick NTSF re-format to work on my PC. The drives are easy to swap out to keep a spare backup off site. Unit is quiet and runs at a nice cool temperature. The real-time status monitors for the drives is really nice to have! The peace of mind this unit provides is priceless. The only draw back is on a PC you're limited to USB2.0 (unless you're lucky enough to have FireWire 800 which I don't). An E-SATA port would have been nice since other G-Tech products have them. I will be buying another one of these real soon to dump old photos onto. Well worth the cost!
