1 out of 5 stars Don't Bring in the Cavalry!   October 15, 2008

I also had one dead in the box. Customer support did not seem surprised by this and had me "reseat" the drive, i.e, take it out and put it back in again, which of course did nothing. Notice how the 5 star reviews praise the "cool" blue light? That may be the best thing you can say about it.

After reading other reviews I got a refund from Costco and bought a WD. So, like others, I never got as far as being able to tell how well it worked.

Really great drive, works exactly as described. No problems during my 2-3 months of using it--I never have to turn it off as the cooling works extremely well. Quiet and reliable. And the light-up front looks cool!

I ordered the Cavalry CAUM37500. Set it up exactly like the manual instructed. The product didn't work at all. Dead right out of the box. I called Cavalry's tech support and after much troubleshooting, the tech concluded that my drive was a lemon. I wish I could comment on how this drive worked but it was dud and basically a $100 paper weight. The product is also a lot heavier and bulkier than many external drives that are out now.
Buy this at your own risk.

Why pay more for the same size hard drive? This is a 500GB hard drive for a relatively lesser price. Physically, it is relatively smaller than most other 500GB HD's. It looks nice with the blue lights. Fits easily in the carrying case. Is very quiet and works great. Just plug it in and it's ready to go.. no installation is required. It comes with a software to backup your internal HD with one click.

The product didn't work right out of the box. It was very difficult to reach technical support by phone. Most commonly nobody answered the phone or they didn't return my call when asked to leave a message. I tried email and got help. I was told to reformat the hard drive but to no avail. I became very frustrated with the support and the fact that the product didn't work. Technical support said to return it to them and they would fix it. At this point,I didn't feel comfortable with the product and elected to return it to Amazon.I bought a Free Agent Seagate external hard drive and couldn't be happier.
