[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1186751, member: 190607"] It's funny...I first heard of G-drives a few months ago. Some research showed that they are now basically Hitachi's own external drive. [url=http://www.g-technology.com/News/company.cfm]G-TECHNOLOGY, Company Info - External, Portable and Desktop Hard Drives Designed for the Mac![/url] If you've read my other posts here on Mac-Forums, you know that I really like Hitachi's internal drives. So I naturally assumed that G-drives would be awesome. But then I started to hear from users who were having problems with their G-drives. Way too many of them. It's a shame that you can't easily return the drive to the manufacturer for a replacement. I suspect that at this point that they are used to doing it, because clearly they have produced a large batch of defective units. You might want to contact them anyway to see what they have to say: [url=http://www.g-technology.com/Support/Support.cfm?Loc=RMAform]G-TECHNOLOGY - Help and Product Support[/url] ___________________________________________ Randy B.
