Thanks for posting. If that's the real deal, I'm not impressed. It's not even straight! Maybe he should have picked up some AOL Discs to make it full size.

Everyone is going overboard about how this external unit is overpriced, however there are more things to consider than price.

1. Many people have hundreds of gigs of movies in the form of divx, and would like to make a portable backup to travel.

2. Building a cheap pc with internal hds is not always practical. It would have a much higher chance of breaking with all the extra parts, use more power, not be easy to move.
