Rated 5 out of 5

Durable, reliable drives

We use to use LaCie Drives but whenever there was a problem, they could not care less, just shunt you to a third party data recovery company who wants an arm and a leg to get the data. Switched to G-TECH, and we now have 18 of their drives. Only one of them ever showed a problem (making noises) and G-Tech replaced it with no hassle. Highly recommend G-Tech for reliability, durability and support.

Time machine? No.

FireWire doesn't work with time machine. Thought it just applied to the older versions, but unfortunately when I tried to set it up to sync it kept giving an error. Ended up getting the USB version and it works fine.
