Title: Not compatible with Camcorder
Product review: First of all, fan noise not a problem for me. It has a loud mode for a few seconds, then its regular volume is fine.Second, it is (was) fast, and transferred files reasonably quickly. Raid1 set up was a breeze, would have given it five stars but....My whole reason for buying was to have a raid mirrored external drive was to download video from camcorder to the MyBook.Plug in a camcorder - The MyBook immediately disappears from the system. It can be brought back, but not easily.Now maybe I am a firewire newbie, but I thought the point of Firewire is that you could connect multiple devices. Apparently not. They can not even be connected at same time.THERE IS NOTHING ON WD's SITE (which I researched thoroughly before buying) THAT INDICATES THAT IT IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH CAMCORDERS OR ANY OTHER DEVICE.*****DO NOT BUY IF YOU PLAN TO CAPTURE VIDEO OR EVEN CONNECT A CAMCORDER TO YOUR SYSTEM****
