Ximeta NetDisk Portable Network Hard DriveStrengths: Portable, works fine as a USB drive. Can replace with another drive. Weakness: requires special software to be installed on each pc wishing to access it, performance is so so, heats up alot. I was hoping this drive would support standard networking protocols such as windows file sharing so that I could simply hook it up to my network and any device that could access a windows share(ie pc, xbox, mac, linux pc) would be able to see the drive as a network share. No luck, it requires special software to be installed on each client machine to access it so it is worthless to me. Stay away...

Ximeta NetDisk Portable Network Hard DriveStrengths: Easy to use, Network Drive Weakness: Like any hard drive, these drive can die any time and you are at high chance of loosing data. Installation on network out of box was somewhat hard. Software installation was giving error saying that it cannot write on some dll file in windows system. So i did not understand what was going. But i simply update my windows to latest patches using microsoftwindows update. And then i tried software installation again and everything went cool at breeze. The data transfer between drive and...

Ximeta NetDisk Portable Network Hard DriveStrengths: Ethernet feature. Easy to setup. Quiet to run. Weakness: Make sure update with most current driver otherwise there will be network access limitations. I owned a 120GB version right now. This is exactly the same except smaller storage space. I am going to replace with hard drive with larger storage space in the future if needed. I was drawn with its Ethernet feature. Very useful.

Ximeta NetDisk Portable Network Hard DriveStrengths: The network ability is very nice. It is upgradable to a larger size hard drive as well. Relatively fast read/write. Weakness: I've heard it has problems with overheating and killing the drive inside. Overall, I think this drive is very decent for an external network hard drive. It is fast, quite and gets the job done. Perfect substitute for a network fileserver that doesn't require a power-sucking pc on 24/7.

Ximeta NetDisk Portable Network Hard DriveStrengths: Acts as Wireless Drive,You can open the box and upgrade default 80gb to 250gb drive.The enclosure is aluminium, so the drive is noiseless and do not need fan. Weakness: Manual is friendly, But to setup as wireless drive takes time and some basic computer knowledge. You should know how to deal with firewall on your computer and some other basic setup. I got this drive from Officemax at their sale for cheap price.Its worth paying price for such a good device.But since most drives have average 1 year life which comes inside Netdisk, I recommend that at end of year you should check your drive status and replace with new drive before it goes dead and you loose your precious data. Google to find different hardware forums which shows how to upgrade...

Ximeta NetDisk Portable Network Hard DriveStrengths: good device for saving and transporting large amounts of data, works great as a USB drive Weakness: heats up a lot, connection via ethernet can be buggy I got this on sale after a $100 discount, so the pricewas definitely right. The idea of having a newtork HDD is great as you can have multiple users accessing the drive. Unfortunately, the implementation of this is not yet fully worked out for the Netdisk. I had trouble accessing the drive from my laptop, but not from my desktop. Additionally, you do have to install software in all the computers...

Ximeta NetDisk Portable Network Hard DriveStrengths: Easy to use, Network Accessible,Faster than most other external USB removables. Weakness: It supports only one user writing at a time. Drives must be install on the laptops/desktops to share this drive. I always wanted to buy an external drive because External drives are perfect for backing up data and storing files like MP3s. They are quick to install and portable from computer to computer. I chose NetDisk because it supports many different file systems from OS X (FAT32), Windows (FAT32 & NTFS), and Linux (FAT32 & NTFS). The disk comes with NTFS as a default file system. Using this drive is...
