I purchased this drive with great expections. From the outset, it looked good, worked right away when plugged in to Windows 2000. I purchased this as an extra storage, so i moved my data over and created a network share on it. It worked nicely, I could connect from another computer. So far so good.A day passed; i tried to use the share drive again; no where to be found. When I tried to use the drive from the connected computer - page fault error!. I had to reboot the machine to get the darn thing being recognized again So now everytime I need to use this darn drive after a day or two, I had to reboot the machine.Don't buy it if you want to use it as an extra on-line stroage. Buy Western Digital is better!
