Comments about Buffalo 1.5TB DriveStation Combo 4 External Hard Drive:
I use the 1.5TB Hard drive for saving all the videos and pictures captured at work while we teach in classrooms and outdoors on a daily basis. It has such a great amount of memory, it seems as if it could never end. Transferring and saving files on the drive is super easy. It is worth buying.

Comments about Buffalo 1.5TB DriveStation Combo 4 External Hard Drive:
The metal feet were a poor design choice. They are already attached to the drive. The first drive I recieved the feet were bent inwards and when attempting to stand it up, it wobbled as if it would fall over if the table were jostled. The shipping box nor the product box showed signs of crushing. The 2nd drive I received was less severe but only 3 legs are touching my desk at any time. Once again the boxes showed no sign of damage. [...] This drive would get a higher score if they had designed a better stand.

I use this for Backup. It works great and was priced right. Have only used it for a couple weeks so I can't comment on long term use.
