Does exactly what it's suppose to do for a tapedrive, same as the HP version, but better price (and a better cover) Very pleased with purchase.

Can't fault it! Except for the Freecom badge on the case its same as the HP product at 20% cheaper, by chance I even managed to get support from both Freecom and HP! Good work.
