I've never experienced a skip with mine over the three to four months I've had it, and I had a vehicle that vibrates quite a bit.

No. You have to put a CD in. And it can't be carried around because it skips all the time.

The "marvelous new features" are part of the quite horrible U3 software package, which doesn't work on a mac. However, I can safely say that you aren't missing much by getting rid of the u3 software and using it as a plain flash drive.

If your drive(s) does not eject randomly, then you do not need this app. But some external drives (e.g. Western Digital's MyBook drives) do not respect the System Preferences settings, therefore you need this app to prevent random eject

I use a 16gb flash drive but I always use random play--sometimes it freezes when loading--but if I switch to cd then back to usb-it seems to always work fine. I've had no problems with sony or Philips mp3 devices--just seems to lock up when first reading flash drives--it is a little slow at reading files before it begins playing--I'd say about a minute delay-not a problem. Display information depends on what is available on flash drive--ir title artist album are provided it will display them--though you have to turn on the display by using the remote 'display" button or it just gives numeric info

The other drive (referenced on your link) is more for the hardcore professional. It's best feature is the speed (480MB/s). The average prosumer (and many pros) will do just fine with this one. I do professional video and this drive is perfect for me.

This is for anyone else who might have this question it says on the chart near the technical info that this is good for Video/Audio use.Edit:You're right, I was looking at the regular g-drive...although Im pretty sure the difference is really just the size and price.....

I have MANY movies stored on it and I can watch them normally, no issues detected. Audio and video run smoothly. I have both Black and Green. I think you'll have no problems using Blue. It's transfer speed is: 6 GB/sJust an advise: the movies for an 80" display/TV should be downloaded in 1080p resolution (full HD), so that you don't get a grainy image. You can also store the movies in the HD, copy them into a pen drive, plug it on the TV and playback them directly from the pen drive, I do this every time I want to watch my movies. Anything else you need, please, feel free to ask me. :-) I have MANY movies stored on it and I can watch them normally, no issues detected. Audio and video run smoothly. I have both Black and Green.

Sandisk has been for me a good value and the right feature set - I've owned several, including the Express, the Fuze and the m200 series. As previously noted, they all have FM radios and the navigation on all of them is pretty much the same thing. Cannot speak to video quality; audio is fine - I've found that for me, the audio is so much affected by the earbuds or earphones used that it makes sense to get good ones.

Absolutely.I have movies & HD videos, stored on mine (i've since purchased another).They transfer fast via 3.0, and you can watch them directly from the drive.

I bought a chinese Superdrive knockoff, and it didnt work, so I spent the extra $$ and bought the Apple USB Superdrive here on Amazon (I had to install the NI bundle this way...sucks..) It works just fine.My advice is "what is another 30 or 40 bucks after spending a small fortune on this machine??" lol

I believe you can save it to the memory or use the mini sd or USB slot. You can also stream straight off of YouTube so you have an unlimited selection.

Hi Craig, Thanks for your useful input. At this stage I think I too should have gone for the 1TB model. Now I can't seem to download video clips onto the 1.5 TB. It starts off OK then freezes and the usual Task Manager solutions don't seem to help and I end up with the dreaded blue screen. I have to switch off and start again. Very boring. If anyone has a solution would be most grateful for help

yes, you get empty shots, but also gets get good ones. purchase the biggest memory card you can afford. I use a 32gb card, fills up in 3 days with HD 30 second videos.

My brother is more knowledgeable about this than me and he said: "The last several units I have installed all had muvee software on them. After using muvee I chose not to use it and use the old Seagate backup software." Hope this helps.
