 So far so goodJan 20, 2009
By 135i
Just purchased and did a full back up of my iTunes and took about 30 minutes. Reformatted for MAC prior to back up. Installed the turbo USB program but not sure it really makes much difference.
Purchased on the Germany economy for 62 USD (equivalent)I had been looking for 1TB but the price of this one pulled me in. 500g will do for now.

1 TB for $109!Jan 18, 2009
By Skjellifeddy McGranahan
I don't know if Amazon will let me do this, but I bought this drive at Fry's for an amazing $109. But what I really wanted to share was this: with two minute's worth of Terminal hacking, I managed to use this drive over my wireless Airport network as a Time Machine backup for my two iMacs, even though Apple would like you to believe you can only do this with their own, expensive Time Capsule drives. Simple instructions here --> [....]
Noobies, don't be afraid -- this was my first time in Terminal too, and it was easy as pie.

 Minor AnnoyancesJul 21, 2009
By C. Hagen
Pros: 1TB for about $100. Wow! Very attractive case.
Cons: Doesn't have an on/off switch. The power-saver software that comes with it is supposed to turn it off after a specified amount of idle time, but I could not get it to work. It either did not put the drive to sleep, or if it did, it would keep coming back on for no apparent reason. It makes considerably more noise than the drive in my laptop, so I do not want to leave it always on. I have to pull the power plug to turn it off when not in use.

 Great way to add backup capability to your system!Apr 11, 2009

Excellent product. Highly recommend. It is quiet, fast, easy to connect. The drivers install automatically.
Note: You can view my video product review at expotv.com, demonstrating opening and installing this external hard drive, including a description of the included softare : (http://www.expotv.com/videos/reviews/7/77/Buffalo-HD-CE10TU2-10TB-DriveStation-Ex/286393). If the link does not work, on the right-top corner, click "Community", on the left, search for member "beta" (no numbers nor letters, just beta) Select the Buffalo HD-CE1.0TU2 1.0TB DriveStation External USB 2.0 SATA Hard Drive Review.
The software on the external hard drive includes: TurboUSB utility, Memeo backup software and encryption software. The serial number for Memeo is on the back of the installation pamphlet. You can format it as an NTFS drive but it comes formated with FAT32. The drive works with both Macs (OS extended mode) and PCs, and even Linux machines (XFS drive capable).
The Buffalo DriveStation USB 2.0 external hard drive was on sale. Great deal with backup software included.
Highly recommend. It looks great, sounds quiet - has 1 Terabyte of space! A good deal even when not on sale.
Pros: External USB : so easy to connect & install, Attractive: Space saving & quiet, Power savings mode - Earth Friendly
Cons: The included Memeo software may be great but did not get it to immediately store individual selected files; need a printed quick get-started guide for the software; the software is on the hard drive, so to format in NTFS, I believe it is necessary to copy the software off the drive and then format the drive.

I recieved my unit and immediately connected it to my desktop and the installation process was very simple and easy. Theusage of the unit was so simple that the object between My Chair and the keyboard (me) could handle it without any problems.
