Customer Reviews of Iomega 160GB External Network Hard Drive
Great drive I have 2 of these and have been using 1 of them for over a year now. Works great. I have plugged this into my wireless router, so now I can access this drive through my laptop from any room. Its reasonably fast - and just very good. U can even turn off the drive remotely (using the configuration web page)... its a breeze.
Very easy installation and backups but NOISY
I couldn't get over how easy it was to install this network drive! Super easy. I like the backup software included which allows you to schedule customizable automated backups that run in the background. (It works best if these run overnight since they slow things down a bit.) I agree with the reviewer who commented on the noise. It is VERY noisy. I can hear it from 2 rooms away (sounds like a distant hairdryer)... when you are sitting nearby it sounds like an airplane revving it's engines.
Works fine for home use, power connector flimsy though
I had no issues using this in a home network with 4 WinXP PC's and a router, they all could find the drive OK, and setup was a breeze. Didnt try the backup software, drag and drop copying worked fine. Speed matches the 100Mbs speed of the ethernet port, its fast enough to play DVD quality mpg files at 8Mbps, I didnt see any hiccuping with WMP. It wont be as fast as a 400Mbps USB2 or 1394 drive though, but it is easier to share if you have a spare port on your router.

>One gripe is the power connector to the drive itself, its hard to align and insert and the pins are easily bent. It has got to be the weirdest and flimsiest power connector of any pc peripheral I have seen.
