Brand new 500GB USB 2.0 d2 extreme drive (not sure if this is the exact model here), brought it home today, opened the box, plugged it in, and nothing, no sound, no start up, just the power light flashing. Took it right back and bought the new WD My Book 400GB, and it has a fan, thank god. These LaCie's cook. Avoid unless you like to waste your money. 0 stars if allowed, since it was brand new and busted.
