I bought Iomega 1TB portable hard drive on 9/2009. The drive came in defective. I called the retailer and they replaced it. This 1st replacement worked until 3/2010 - then stopped working and I lost 50 GB of data. Iomega asked me to send the corrupted drive back to them ( at my expense) and sent me the refurbished replacement. This 2nd replacement drive worked until 11/2010 and again I lost 50 GB of data. Iomega tech support told me to reformat the drive and seek replacement ( 4th!) if that does not work. The product is useless, the service is horrible. I regret I ever made this purchase/ They also told me that they do not offer refunds. Do not buy IOMEGA product, it is not worth the hassle and the money!
