Title: Works well, very small and light, gets very hot during use
Product review: I bought this to be a portable backup for my work computer. It has served the purpose well. I like its firewire capability, as it can now serve as bootable drive in an emergency. It has enough storage space (for me, at least) to partition into two drives and to use one as backup and one as a general shuttle drive. The only complaint I have is that it gets extremely hot - so hot, in fact, that at one point during a long backup (~60 GB), I thought it was going to burn the table. It can definitely get too hot to hold when in use. However, that's the tradeoff for such a small drive... it weights significantly less than a pound and can easily slip into a side pocket in a backpack or even fanny pack. All in all, I highly recommend this drive.
