Seems to be a few reviews commenting about problems with the cable not being secure. Not sure if Iomega have upgraded or its because people are reviewing the 320GB model under the 500GB description but this is not an issue with the 500GB drive I received. I even picked it up and turned the drive round 360 degrees whilst doing a test backup. Sure the cable got in a tangle but the drive carried on copying with no sign of the cable being loose what-so-ever.

I must admit it was slightly bigger than I expected, the photo against a paper clip just got me thinking it was going to be really tiny and I didnt worry about reading the dimensions.
Dont get me wrong though this thing is very small for something that packs in 500GB. Prob about 50% bigger than an I-phone’s dimensions. So it looks VERY stylish, packs 500GB into a small package and doesnt need any external power, works for me.
