Purchase Iomega ScreenPlay Pro 1 TB USB 2.0/AV/Ethernet HD Multimedia Hard Drive 34151

Horrible. I am truely having a hard time saying anything positive about this... umm... it looks ok?

I pulled it out of its box, plugged it in, copied a few files over USB. so far so good. I presumed that it would be viewable over the network, but you have to plug it into the TV first, and go to the settings and set it to DHCP. ok fine, annoying but fine. got on the network. Not a blazing fast network ,but it was on a wire 100Mb. I tried to copy more files over the network... wow... that was sloooooowwwwww... I could download faster from the internet than I could transfer files to the device.

Menus are horrible... not clear, no search (1 TB and no search... brilliant). the picture was never good. The settings to change the picture resolution (720P, 1080i...) would cause the screen to go black. I could only see a picture on 480P, and it was a really bad picture on 480P. it is hard to tell how bad the picture is in the menu system because it is all black with some grey text.

Virtually no documentation on how to do things. Can only connect 1 network drive to it at a time.

It is boxed up and ready to return as soon as I get a chance. Awful product. I would give it zero stars if I could. Look at xbmc, or mythtv... not as cheap (needs more hardware) but they work, are intuitive, and work well.

Do not punish yourself by wasting any time in your life with this awful thing.

Where To Buy SuperTalent STU8GPCS Pico-C 8 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive

The good news first:

- Yes, it's really small and stylish.

- It's durable. I'm carrying it loose in a small pocket of my handbag, so it's being subjected to pretty bad treatment, but so far it hasn't stopped working.

The bad news:

- It's a bit hard to plug in, and disconnecting it can be a real hassle. (In other words the connector is a bit thicker than it's normally supposed to.) With most USB ports it still works OK and you just need to push/pull a little harder. On MacBook Airs it seems particularly difficult though.

- It will randomly disconnect, especially with heavy usage (lots of files transferred back and forth). The computer tells you that the USB device has disconnected, and then it either just reconnects or you have to take it out and plug it in again. Happens with Mac and Windows machines. As a result, it's still usable for the occasional big file transfer when you don't want to use email (so as a rare user of memory sticks I'm happy enough with it). However, if you are planning for heavier usage or to store valuable files on the drive, I can't honestly recommend this one.Get more detail about SuperTalent STU8GPCS Pico-C 8 GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive.
