Ximeta 80GB NetDisk

[vegan]

Your review did not try actually sharing date between 2 computers much less 20. I have a NetDisk 160gb. I attached it to a router. I tried to share data between 2 win2k computers. I frequently got error messages about the drive being restricted to read only until the other computer released it. I gave up and made it a usb drive. Which is not what I paid for.

Ximeta’s NetDisk is not only a USB 2.0 accessible hard drive, it is also accessible to a computer or an entire network via a 100Mbps Ethernet port. Is this an external hard drive or pocket sized file server?

I'm actually using their new 3.03 multi-write drivers, and it is working great for me with 3 machines (2 winxp and 1 win2k machine). I had a problem upgrading, but after talking to ximeta support, they sent me a cleanup utility to install everything from scratch and that solved everything...all in all a great drive and great support...

I bought this product with high expectations. These were not met.
1) It is not a server, so it has to be run with special software on any computer that access it (assuming using ethernet)
2) The one I got, and the one a friend of mine got (at the same time) have never worked.
3) I sent mine back for warranty replacement. I bought the unit end of april, and have still not received a replacement. It is now middle of August. I am giving up on getting my money back.
My advice, do not buy products from this company.
