User Reviews for Apricorn 500GB EZ Bus DTS SATA/USB External Storage System

  • Reviewed by: kcarlson2

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: NONE

    Weaknesses: failure...complete loss of data....

    Overall Evaluation: I purchased two apricorn drives, one 500gb, and the other a 250gb. BOTH failed with minimal or NO USE before a year was up. The first one to fail, had all of my photos on it which were unable to be recovered. The second one I didn't have a chance to store anything on it, (thank goodness!) and shortly after the first one failed, which was being used on my home computer, the second one failed, which was being used with my business computer. Apricorn did NOTHING. Will NEVER purchase another Apricorn product!
