I got one from Amazon (love Amazon Prime!) and will report back on how it
works, though it seems fine so far! :P

I have one, works great....  I used it to back my stuff up before I bought
my new Terabyte NAS running Raid 1..

I gave up on tape a long time ago, especially now that terabyte drives are
so damn cheap.  :)

I still use the Thermaltake for doing ghosts, copying users data, stuff like
that..  Have not had any issues with mine at all..

Anyone have any experience with these?   I was leaning towards the USB/eSata
one along with a couple 1.5TB Seagates to back up my NAS.    I plan on
keeping one drive in my fireproof safe and the other will be shipped
offsite.   If I do this, what is the best way to store the drives?  Static
bags?  Vacuum packed?   Enclosures of some kind?  I am not averse to
spending a few bucks to protect the drives while they are in storage.

Seems like a series of drives in a rotation is a lot better backup strategy
rather than using tape....
