    G-Technology G-DRIVE mobile USB Portable USB 3.0 Hard Drive 1TB (5400RPM) (0G02428)

    • These are good, reliable hard drives in my experience.
    • so I would absolutely *not* recommend this drive if your data is important to you.
    • I just plug the USB 3.0 into my MacBook Air Laptop, the drive appears, and I drag & drop my photo files over to it.
    • I've had USB 2 drives transfer a lot of data before, now I have a really fast hard drive that is very convenient.
    • I recently purchased this external hard drive
    • I've been using other G-Drive devices for years and never had any issues, so buying this portable hard drive was a no-brainer
    • This is a great, sturdy hard drive
    • This drive is a nice size and works flawlessly with my new MBA
    • This hard drive is reliable, small, and has plenty of room.
    • This drive is fast with my Mac
    • I wanted a simple, easy to use, small external hard drive to back up tons of my photos, and this one is just perfect.
    • This hard drive works well, is small and very portable
    • The hard drive comes pre-formatted right out of the box for Mac's.
    • Of the three cables included with the hard drive, only the USB cable would stay plugged into the computer
    • Their other models may work fine but this is not a reliable drive due to USB port issues
    • nice drive
    • I bought two of these as they look great and feel quite robust, but from my experience aren't that good if you're using them on a daily basis with repeated plug and unplugs - they worked great at first, but the SATA card (that's the component that links the hard drive to the power/data transfer port that your USB lead plugs into) is very poor quality and failed after just over a year
    • This mobile G drive is nifty, backs up beautifully and interfaces with the G Drive External Hard Drive as well
    • Great drive for a great price
    • I bought this hard drive to store the files from my old windows laptop and continue using it with my new MacBook Pro (which has only 124GB)
    • Its a MUST have for anyone that wants to clear up hard drive space on their devices and anyone who wants to keep their special documents or pictures safe
    • One of the best hard drives on the market
    • This hard drive is a great choice for the MacBook Air and the MacBook Pro.

    • so I've snapped open the case to take the actual inner hard drive out and ordered a new housing for it and absolutely *praying* that I can recover my data
    • Awesome drive, perfect for on the road back-up.
    • Even worst of all, on my last call they claimed they do not have any replacement drive in stock, therefore, you have to send the drive, pay shipment and wait indefinitely until they get a refurbished (and probably defective) drive back to you!On the other hand, when we had a problem with a LaCie drive, we received the new unit within 48 hours, they provided a shipment label and 30 days time to return the defective drive to ensure we had time to recover and transfer all the data
    • This mobile G drive is nifty, backs up beautifully and interfaces with the G Drive External Hard Drive as well
