What's great about it: Price was right - nice form factor
What's not so great: Impossible to mount
Not sure if I was particularly unlucky, but I couldn't get this drive to mount on two separate laptops. One running Windows 7, the other XP. There were troubleshooting instructions that were incredibly complicated. I made it through the first 3 steps (of 14 or so) before I decided it wasn't worth my time to continue. Returned the unit and purchased similarly priced WD unit - which was recognized immediately.
Your experience may differ, of course...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My local Best Buy store did a price match for a promo from Fry's, so I got a good deal on the drive and didn't have to pay for shipping. Easy to use. Love the drop guard feature.

What's great about it: Drop guard protection & slim design
What's not so great: connection cord a little bit short
Bought this as my second back up external HD. I have been using western digital but decided to try this one. What convinced me to get Iomega is the design of the product and the drop guard feature. The silver exterior match my macbook. Since I will be using this for both Mac & Windows platform I reformatted the drive to FAT32, probably not maximizing what the drive can do if I will use it primarily as a time machine backup. But I would rather have an external HD where I can store my files from both OS. Transfer speed is comparable to other products that supports multi platforms.
I would recommend this to a friend!
