Well, as an external drive under USB 2, this is a great product, easily reads and writes 1 gig files ok but that's the only reason I gave it 2 stars.
However, as a portable photo hard disk, it leaves a lot to be desired, and after all, that's what it is being advertised for. It uploads 64 mb files from a 64 meg card ok, but with a 128 mb card, it uploads maybe 5 out of 6 tries. 1 of 6 times you will get a file error (even though the card is ok or another card is used). With a 256 mb card, it chokes even if there is only 168 mb on the card. The drive goes into a loop then stalls, so you have to reset it using the pinhole reset. The file may or may not have been transfered, but the only way you can find out is to attach the drive to a PC and look at it.
On the other hand, the customer support is good, I had a response from INOi within 2 days, and Tiger has offered to exchange it for another. I will advise if the second unit works as advertised. |

What You Should Know

Digital Camera Flash Storage
Capacities
 |
* Average file size
using cameras highest resolution JPEG mode. Actual number of
photos, songs, and minutes will vary depending on camera/device model,
format resolution and compression, usable capacity, and bundled software.
Actual usable memory capacity may vary. 1MB equals 1 million bytes; 1GB
equals 1 billion bytes.
NUMBER OF IMAGES STORED ON A DIGITAL CARD
The number of
pictures you can take varies depending on your camera model and complexity
of the scene being photographed. To calculate how many pictures your card
can hold, divide the capacity of your card by the average file size of your
images. For example, if you have a 256MB card, and use a camera that has an
average file size of 1.2MB, then 256 divided by 1.2 gives you approximately
213 pictures. As you change modes on your camera, the number of images will
increase if you shoot in a lower resolution mode, and decrease if you shoot
in a higher resolution mode. |

What Is USB 2.0?
USB 1.1 was great when it was introduced almost a decade ago. But
the newer USB 2.0 transfers data dramatically faster - up to 40 times
quicker. Plus, USB 2.0 provides additional bandwidth for multimedia and
storage applications, which are growing larger every year. Also to your
advantage is the fact that USB 2.0 is forward and backward compatible with
USB 1.1, which means that cables and connectors made for the original USB
configuration will also work perfectly in a USB 2.0 port, though some newer
devices are specifically designed for USB 2.0. It is always a good
idea to verify the version of USB supported by each device you want to use. |
