5 out of 5 stars 500 GB Network storage (Iomega)   October 3, 2008
J. Waddell (Frozen Tundra of Minnesota)
Simple set up, lots of space. My desktop backs up to it once a week automatically. I back up my laptop to it wirelessly, when I remember.
I also back up all my flash drives frequently. Over a wired network, it is fast and convenient. Over the airwaves, it's just convenient. I feel it is a good product from a reputable company for a good price.

Nancy C. Stultz (Millerstown, PA United States)
I am very happy with the Iomega storage unit. It was easy to install and of course easy to use. Nothing like Iomega for a good storage solution.
