Well until very recently I had not purchased one. I did
however get the 20 gig model and I have yet to use it for music:)
I use it as a portable firewire drive I have installed on it OSX and
a host of hard drive utilities. I use it to boot off of and repair/
maintain our G4 Towers at work. Someday I suppose I will add
music to it, but for now it is a very useful tool to diagnoss and
repair Mac hardrives. (which is what I do for a living....so it
makes my life a bit easier)
