It is really easy to tear down and put back together, it will be fairly bulky to store but if you have the room it should work.

Yes ,you can used. The situation was that some times its turn off. And lost the data.

Yes, it is easily broken down and put back together. Very good quality. We've had it for a year and its like brand new.

Yes, this can be set up as just a external hard drive for storage. That is what we use it for.

Yes you can. You need to reset it each time. It takes less than 10 minutes to do so.

No, it has to be reset. I'd advise you not to buy this. It is piece of junk.

you would have to semi disassemble it to store it. It is a great product though!

Yes, the unit breaks down into 3pcs.. Very handy for storing and putting into the back of a smaller vehicle..

Yes, but only while it's using it... you can have it back when it's finished.

No -- and that is why I bought it -- strickly as an external storage drive. You just plug it in and use it from Finder/Windows Explorer. It contains software to use it as a backup drive, but I did not install it, nor did I have to do anything to prevent it from installing. I use it as one of my dual drives for redundant storage for my images as a photographer so I access it frequently -- it has worked flawlessly since I bought it.

Yes, there is a tightening screw that will loosen to allow for easy breakdown and storage. It's a great product.

I don't think so, but I'm no expert on doing that. I was not very happy with the unit (for other reasons) and no longer use it.

I don't know if you can. If you've had it for some time and it died then it may not be worth trying. Mine died at about the 1 1/2 year point I think it was. I went out and bought another one. My only though is perhaps to hook it up to a regular computer, see if it recognizes the drive and play around from there. I would be hesitant to use it for too long if you can manage to reform it. When it does you get little warning and you lose all the recordings on it.

yes,all it is an external drive, so it would not run an operation system, but you can retrieve data off of it like a usb tumb drive and use it as extra storage for acomputer.

Yes, you can always re-format. It lasted a good 3 years or so, before it started to fail.

Yes it is. I'm on my second one, the first one lasted over four years and probably would've lasted longer if i hadn't put it in storage. something the manufacturer does not recommend.
