 nice flexible drive, cool tooAug 24, 2009
By Raymond L. Heinrich
I've had two of the 500's since about May 09,
and I've had one of their 320's for quite a
while. My new 500's have 7200 rpm Western
Digital SATA drives. I can barely get the
bare drives for less than these cost and when
you add in the case and power supply... wow.
So you can rig them as external SATA drives
for your DVR (need a SATA cable and be willing
to cut up the case a tiny bit) or take the drive
out when your computer landscape changes and
put it in your old desktop... Anyway, I use one
as a common ole USB2 backup drive and it's still
running just fine. USB drive's aren't real fast,
but this one's faster than most.
And oh, the heat thing: Despite what you hear
sometimes, aluminum cases (like this one has)
are the best (after a fan, of course).
But why does it seem otherwise in a lot of the
reviews you see? Well... the problem is that if
you feel an aluminum case and a plastic case
which are at the same temperature; the aluminum
case will always feel much hotter even while the
drive inside is cooler. That's because aluminum
is much better at conducting heat, and this
includes your hand!

 Very nice for the priceDec 04, 2008

The hard drive was very simple, nothing extra fancy. Compatible with Mac was my main concern and it was hard to find out if it was. Small, portable but the external measurements are different than I found online. Overall very good product.

Cirago 1TB USB External HDMar 30, 2010
By Not-a-RINO
The item was very well packaged and in excellent (new) condition when I received it. The only minor drawback I can think of is that it didn't have a utility for making compressed back-ups of computer hard drives such as Ghost included in the box. WYSIWYG - What you see is what you get. You get a nice-looking external HD with a LOT of storage capacity.

Great...but we have to wait!!!Oct 08, 2009
By D. M. Wilson
The Cirago CST4500 500 GB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive is great thus far. It was already pre-formatted in the correct format that I needed (as I was planning to use this as extra storage for my PS3). I was able to transfer about 60GB of info from my laptop to free up space and another 35GB+ from my PS3 without an issue. As you all should know by now. That is only half the battle. Now, I am in the waiting phase to see if it holds up. I have seen many externals that corrupt or just fail after months or even years. So, for now, the waiting has begun.

No issues using it - works like any external hard drive would. I like the design.
