Thanks for a great review. How does this compare to the Freecom 35296 Hard Drive Dock Quattro? Do you think the aforementioned is just as good? It's 20 quid or so more expensive. Btw - I'm subscribing..! :)
@davomrmac Yeah, I know, I meant to post this comment on your review of the Harddrive Dock Pro. But since you gave that a good review I'm buying the Quattro version of it.. :)
@DerekZimmer This was a review unit. However, if I was selecting a hard drive it would have been on my consideration list. After testing the hard drive for the review, if I was buying one now it would definitely get my purchase.
@productfeedback USB is a strange kettle of fish sometimes. Often it is too much power draw needed than for example the laptop can supply that causes problems, rather than the drive itself.
But, at this size and money, it still mises the network one. And that's a negative for me.
Plus, if i would buy an external hdd now i would love to have an usb 3.0 because we will eventually get that on our laptops and desktops, at least my Gigabyte MB has it.
1 thing: Why in the hell 3 firewire connections? If you have a second, third hdd you will probably connect it to your pc and not through this hdd.
@elvin2130 Thanks for your comment. Network connectivity would be nice, but this offers slower transfer and is really for someone who ant a central rather than local storage location.
USB 3.0 there are hard drives coming out with this, so it will feature no doubt more in the future.
Two of the FireWire connections are for direct to computer, the third is for daisy chaining extra hard drives.
all your videos are mind blowing however this the best video i have ever seen on your channel, nice and well presented... keep up the good work.... w8ing for more videos.... 5 star......

@Nocturne06 The drive dock quattro is a different product for using bare drives. It should perform well though.

Did you purchase this or get it from the manufacturer for review? If you purchased, why this unit vs. other brands?

I am not to sure on the reliability of these drives. I sell the portable 2.5 freecoms at my work and we get a fair amount back.
Usually problem, not recognizing the HDD with the comp.
However that is usually due to usb powered devices.
