Just got it a few days ago, bur it seems to be exactly what I was looking for. It's big, not huge, but for a 2 TB hard drive it;s quite large. Which in the case of this product, makes you feel safe. It is heavy and solid, and it's easy to believe that it will survive a fire or flood. Hopefully I never find out.It is quiet, never makes a sound.It come with a screw mount, I can screw it into the floor if I want, which I probably will soon.Plugged right in to my iMac. No extra nothing, no compatibility issues of any kind, boom it's my Time Machine dive could't be easier. the most plug and play drive ever,Comes with a year of drive recovery protection. Of course they try to sell you more, and I went for it. $50 gets you 3 years, $100 gets you 5 years. If your drive fails and you don't have protection it could easily be $1000+ , so I found this to be a deal, and I am not one to usually buy an extended service plan. Buying a new drive in a few years is one thing…being able to recover my vital data after a disaster is priceless.I've had various problems with various drives I've tried to set up with Time Machine. Shouldn't, but I have. NO PROBLEMS with this drive at all, easiest drive I've ever used. And the peace of mind knowing that it's secure, I can't even describe what that's like.  i live in SoCal and eventually we're going to have a terrible earthquake. My computer may burn up in a fire, but I can buy a new one. But my data will be safe,.

    Solid drive

This seems like the best alternative to online backup, which isn't really an option for me since I have hundreds of gigs of backups. If you are going to get a 2 TB backup drive then I think a USB 3.0 connection is a must if your mobo supports it, copying over 2.0 takes forever. Anyway, due to the utter lack of specs anywhere on the interwebs about this drive, I thought I should post some info here:To clarify the dimensions:Length: 11" (the flange is about another inch)Height: 7.1"Width:  5"The actual disk size is 1.81 TB, formatted NTFS, it comes empty aside from ~250 MB used. I couldn't find any files on it, hidden or otherwise.It has an on/off switch on the back and a blue HDD activity light on the front that stays on at all times. Apparently I'm collecting blue LEDs because this room is starting to look like a space ship at night.The hole in the flange that you use to bolt it down is maybe a bit more than a quarter inch (just enough for a pencil to fit through). I don't have anything to bolt it to so instead I'm using a padlock (.25" shackle width fits, I think) and a chain. I don't think having a super strong lock is too important since the easiest thing to cut through would probably be the flange. It and the whole outer casing is made of metal, which means that maybe it could even survive a nuclear EMP if it was unplugged, maybe.The USB 3.0 cable that comes with it is about 42 inches long. I replaced it with a 6 foot one. There are 10 and 15-foot ones but allegedly the transfer rate of 3.0 slows down with distance (moreso than 2.0) and so some people don't recommend 10+ feet, though not everyone seems to agree.It comes with a card to activate a free year of their data recovery service (you don't need to buy the extra warranty or that SeaGate thing for this). While their website says you can "upgrade at any time", I haven't found a way to actually do that. It gives you the option of upgrading to a 3 or 5 year service ($50 and $100, I think) when you first register. There is a note that says "The opportunity to extend your ioSafe Data Recovery Service to 3 or 5 years is only available to newly purchased products, during the initial purchase process.", so if you are going to do that, make sure you do it when you have the chance. This isn't a website where you make an account or anything, you just put in the serial and activation code - and a bunch of required personal info that they will probably sell - and you're done. I didn't do the upgrade since it's unlikely to be worth that much money, and according to the YouTube vids it seems like the drive would most likely still be usable after a fire, at least enough to get the data off, though you would miss out on getting a free replacement ioSafe (a refurbished one, anyway).Finally, all of the relevant data from Speccy:ioSafe G3 USB DeviceHeads...............16Cylinders...........243,201Tracks..............62,016,255Sectors.............3,907,024,065SATA type...........SATA-III 6.0Gb/sDevice type.........FixedATA Standard........ATA8-ACSLBA Size............48-bit LBAPower On Count......15 timesPower On Time.......5.3 daysSpeed...............7200 RPMFeatures............S.M.A.R.T., APM, NCQMax.

    A peace of mind!

I got my drive a while ago, my neighbors house caught on fire and they lost everything and shortly after I saw an article about ioSafe in a magazine. I love the look on the drive and its fire and water proof features. the indicator light is subtle but tells you that it's turned on and if it's processing data (unlike my old WD MyBook which lights up the whole room do you chose to have the status light on). The drive is silent and it feels like a sturdy and well built device. At least I now have my peace of mind and know that my backup is safe from fire, but let's hope that never happens though.The Genie 9 backup software is easy to use and a good add-on to have with your drive cause it makes backup schedules so you always have an up to date backup at a safe place.Couple of days after I received my drive I got an e-mail from the CEO of the company, asking me to take a short survey, which I did, but I never thought that the e-mail was in any way taken care of by the CEO. Shortly after I replied with the answers from the survey I got a personal reply from the CEO where he thanked me and answered some question I had about the device, moreover he told me they were a small business and I could reach out to them if I had any further question about the drive. Such proximity to customers gives you the feeling that this company is in this for the long run and cares about its products and customers, at that very moment I wanted to apply for a job at ioSafe.
