An excellent little (externally at least) backup drive. Amazing 1Tb capacity given it's almost pocket size. Don't need any of the supplied software, works fine with Linux backup programs, etc. Left it with the original NTFS format and haven't had any problems with that. Works fine as a USB2 drive, much faster than I was expecting (comparing it with USB flash drives).

The only slight glitch is the difference in how it shuts down from WinXP and Kubuntu. In XP when you do the USB safely remove device thing is that it the drive audibly parks the heads and then shuts down completely. In Kubuntu when you unmount it it doesn't (audibly at least as far as I could tell) do anything and keeps spinning. However, after a bit of research I found you can apparently duplicate what XP does by issuing the command (if your device is mounted as /dev/sdc) "udisks --detach /dev/sdc" after first unmounting it.
