Have some time been looking for a Firewire drive for my iMac and then I landed after studying various reports ultimately at the Iomega Minimax 2TB. It is fast, quiet, visually the iMac belonging and equipped with all necessary cables. Switching - is recognized - works. Doubts should one with the size of 2TB, whether you want to partition the disk. This is with Mac means no data loss only in case of empty plate possible. I have the Iomega split into two partitions, since I use Time Machine and this takes the place of the entire partition permanent. So I have the second partition Time Machine manually assign free for other data and does not have in his place. This plate, I would buy immediately.
