works, but slow
I took this with me to Europe so I could copy my pics over to an external drive. It does work well, but it operates at USB 1.1 (why?) so it is very slow. Also, the three AAA batteries will just barely power a small external drive (sometimes they wont), so I recommend using an external power supply to power your drive. I have a battery powered USB power source that worked well for this purpose. If you can it is by far better to just bring a cheap laptop, but if for whatever reason you can not, this is an okay alternative.<br /><br />It does have some cool features, such as the ability to select by file type what gets copied. And its great for duplicating USB drives or something on the go, when you don't have a computer handy. But its SO slow.
