Thank you, it sounds like what tiger direct is offering right now for 119. It does not surprise me that the software included is not accessible at all. Like I said there are other programs to use for backing up your system so nothing to worry that way.

Hello David, Well, No, I purchased the Seagate Terabyte External Hard Drive at Staples, which is like Office Max, or Office Depot. It was on SALE, cost $139, and the regular price in that store was $200. I just had DSL installed for my new Dell, running XP, and since I was downloading so fast, I started collecting stuff!! In fact, I collected as much in two (2) months as I had collected in 10 years with my Dial-out modem, and my old Gateway running Windows 98 (First Edition) (Smmile) ! Hey, I still have it set up next to my new Dell, it is still working, and since it has two (2) hard drives, I use it for stuff! I am going back this weekend to get another one, and hope it is still on Sale. Not because I believe I will fill up the Terabyte, but I want to back up everything I have on one to the other. What I am downloading is very precious to me, and do not want to even take a one in a million chance of losing it! Not that I do not trust Seagate, I have a 30 GB Seagate for almost 7 years it is in my old Gateway, and it is smooth as a whisper! I also purchased a Seagate external Hard Drive 30 MB for $900 back in 1985!! Yes, $900, not a typo! (Smile) It was still running when I dumped the IBM PC I used it with!! Darn, I should have kept that thing, it might be an antique now!! Oh yes, the applications that came with the Seagate Terabyte were just too graphical, I could not use JAWS with them. My wife was explaining the graphics to me, and it seem they were just simple directory type Applications. So, I just ignored them!
