User Ratings and Reviews

1 Star Does NOT work!!! And Toshiba customer service SUCKS!!!
I bought the Toshiba 320GB External Hard Drive at the end of the Summer to use with my Powerbook G4. And to this day, I have NOT been able to use it. I have contacted Toshiba’s customer service to ask them what to do. First off, they take there sweet time to reply (a week more or less), when their website says that they’ll respond in 24 hrs. Then when I did get a hold of them they sent me a USB powered adapter for free (thank you for that), Except, The Harddrive STILL is not registering on my laptop. Then when I tell them that……………..Still waiting for a response. Whatever happened to taking care of the customer who dise-out over a $100 for “Good, Reliable” products? Thanks Toshiba for taking the money and running.

My advice is, Tested it out right when you buy it to make sure it works with your computer. I waited too long to test it out on my Mac to return it to Best Buy.

Best of luck with Toshiba and their Customer Service.

5 Stars Very nice drive
Very nice quality, did reformat it but other than that it I have nothing to complain about. About once a month I use it to backup my files and or travel with it.

5 Stars happy customer
After doing some research online about which external hard drive to buy, I chose the Toshiba 320 GB because the price was right. I compared gigs to price with what would fit my Dell the best. It is small- 5 x 4 inches or so, which is nice, and comes with a 12 inch USB cable. The installation was easy and quick. I’m not a huge computer guru, so I wanted something that would be easy to manage. It works great, just what I wanted and for a price I couldn’t find anywhere else.

5 Stars Satisfied with this Product
I just use it for Music, Photo, large graphical images, and large 3D files.

PROS:

+ 320 GB for[...] was a pretty good deal at the time.

+ As far as I can tell it’s working great.

+ The size is acceptable, and the shell design is acceptable.

+ Weight comparable to iPod (30 GB)

+ Silent

+ rubber pad strips on bottoom

CONS:

- The BLACK gloss finish makes smudges and prints extremely visible.

- Since I’m pretty anal about it, there are no scratches, but can only

assume that the scratches are easy to make and would be more

pronounced as well

- Not sure if it’s an OS thing, or not but I prefer that when the device

is ejected that the tiny blue light turn off as well

- Short Cord (The device will dangle from some Desktops due to USB port

placements and is stored under computer desk compartment).

(4.5 Stars Really)

very minor negative comments so I’ll still rate it at it’s highest.

5 Stars Toshiba External Hard Drive
The Toshiba External Harddrive is great. I just love it. There are no problems during the order, everything was on time and in the original packing. The Hard Drive looks very fancy and is very small – so you can take it with you wherever you go. There is a program you can install but it’s not necessary, it works without it as well!
