Great RAID 1 with nice power plug.......2007-10-21
For people that rely on external storage, the biggest concerns are a harddrive failure and broken power plug. If you want a drive that has RAID 1(mirroring), this one works with MACs and PCs. The only problem is that you will need a Windows machine to do the initial RAID hardware configuration. Once the hardware is set to RAID 1, you can simply plug the unit into a MAC and use disk utility to format the drive as a 250GB mirrored HFS+ journaled volume.
This enclosure is great because it uses a regular boombox power cord for its power. No more stupid broken power adapters like most other brands. It will also work with 240v.
Raid Setup Utility does not work - tech support on hold for 40 minutes.......2007-08-29
I should have read the review here before buying this product. I downloaded the latest Raid Utility for Windows and it still cannot find the drives. I disabled the drives as suggested on the BuffaloTech web site and still cannot find the drives.
I've been on hold for 40 minutes for tech support. This is the second call. The first call, I spend 10 minutes on hold, and then got hung up. It seemed like the company rushed the product before testing and probably too cheap to hire tech support people to deal with all the problems.
This is my last Buffalo Tech product.
USB Connection Does Not Work with Raid1.......2007-08-19
I could not get the RAID utility to work on XP with USB either.
But while browsing the documentation for the Mac, I have noticed something about using WireFire. I switched the cables and was able to set up a RAID mirror on Windoze XP. For the sake of completeness: I have also downloaded and installed the latest RAID Utility from buffalotech.com.
It seems like people are running into this problem, but the information on the net and in the documentation on how to fix the issue is very sparse.
Mac Intel .......2007-06-02
I have a MacBook 2Gz Core 2 Duo. Getting the Drivestation to work on my Mac was easy :
1- Ignore the Mac utility that comes on the CD, it doesn't work.
2- Connect the drive to a Windows machine and install the windows setup application.
3- When you install the application, a new window will appear with "RAID Setup Utility". For some reason, when I ran the utility from that window it would walk me through a number of setup pages, but never let me pick the configuration I wanted for my drive (RAID1). If that happens to you, run the RAID Setup Utility from Start/All Programs/BUFFALO/... instead. That opened up the window letting me pick my configuration. I picked RAID1 ...
4- Connect the drive to your Mac (I chose Firewire), DONE. Works great ! It mounts every time, no issues.
The drive itself looks good, well built, silent. I only wish the cord was a bit longer.
Works good for me.......2007-05-23
I bought the 500G Drivestation Duo to use as a RAID 1 storage device for my photos. I'm using it with a MacBook Pro w/Intel 2.33 processor. The disc configuration software that comes with the device does not work with Intel Macs, but you can configure the drive with a PC using the version 1.01 software downloaded from Buffalo's web site and then run the drive on a MAC. This is what I did and it works fine. I called Buffalo support line to confirm the above details before I tried it and was able to get through after about a 5 minute wait, and the CSR was very polite and helpful. The drive seems quite a bit slower than my inernal drive, but it's not too bad. Overall, the setup was very simple and everything seems to be working just fine. So I'm quite satisfied.

Decent for the price.......2006-02-18
I'm a (new) military photojournalist, and I shoot for a hobby, too. I tend to stick with the budget accessories so I can still afford groceries. I bought this lens used, with two filters, for $120. I needed a telephoto lens that would be good for shooting aircraft in flight and stuff like that, mostly outdoors. For what I paid, this lens is great. Yes, it's far inferior to the stuff my office supplies us with, but so is the price. The zoom ring, at least on mine, is very stiff. I don't know if that's just mine or a quality of the lens. The other reviews are correct, you need a good amount of light for this to really be effective. However, if you know what you're doing in Photoshop, you have nothing to worry about. For me, I like a soft, portrait-like photo in almost all situations, and in the newspaper things don't print sharp at all, so I use this lens for both work and play. It's light, and pretty compact. I really don't use the macro. Bottom line, I am happy with this lens, but I would like to eventually spend more on a nicer one.
Wonderful quality for the money!.......2001-05-31
I own two Nikon N80 bodies. I used to own Nikon lenses only. Then I had trouble with the Nikon zoom and traded it in for a Sigma. Funny thing - the Sigma focused more clearly and easily than Nikon's own lens! I also own a Tamrom 1.4 teleconverter which did not work at all with the Nikon lens - but it works beautifully with this Sigma lens. I recently got some wonderful closeups of butterflies using the teleconverter with this lens - hand-held! I highly recommend this lens.
To add a PS: I wrote this review in 2001, and now in 2005 I still own it and it still works great, no repairs needed. It's a little bulky by today's standards, but great optics for the price.
A Great Lens for Sports, Close-Ups or Girl Watching.......2001-05-11
As a telephoto zoom, this lens is very versatile. Its a fine (100-135mm) portrait lens. Its great for sports or animal photography (135-300mm). With the macro feature, its wonderful for taking photos of flowers and nature. And with its long telephoto capability, it makes a cool girl watching lens. For capturing the mood of summer or of being on vacation, nothing says it better than a pretty girl photographed in the location in local attire. (With a telephoto zoom lens, even for a portrait, its easier to separate the subject from the crowd or background in order to frame the composition perfectly.)
As a Nikon owner, I use this lens with my Nikon N-90, which has a flash sync speed of 1/250th of a second, fast enough to hand hold with a telephoto lens. I also use the dedicated Nikon SB-28 flash which has a zoom head to extend the flash's range; and when combined with the Nikon "D" lens mount on the Sigma lens (which tells the camera subject distance) and Nikon's 3-D Matrix Metering, this combination of equipment allows me to shoot telephoto fill-flash in broad daylight (with no extra thinking required. Just compose and shoot). Nothing makes the subject pop -- in terms of brightness and color -- more than fill-flash. I'll usually use the Sigma 70-300 in this set-up to capture animals or people. (My friends are always amazed at the brightness and color saturation of my photos. They think I use special film.)
I also employ this lens/camera/flash combination (using 400 or 800 speed film) to photograph my son's basketball games indoors. By using a fast enough film, I can perfectly balance the ambient light with the flash to create perfectly natural indoor sports photos. (Using flash makes the color of his jersey pop. Attempting to shoot indoors using only available light will leave the colors murky.)
When I'm out and about, I'll normally carry, as a back-up to my Nikon/Sigma set-up, an autofocus point-and-shoot 35 mm camera (such as my Olympus Stylus DLX 28-90) so I don't need to change lenses. (It's much easier to whip out the autofocus camera for the wider angle shots than it is to switch lenses. It's also much lighter to carry.)
What's best about the Sigma 70-300 is that it does all of the above -- at a very affordable price. If you're looking for a great telephoto zoom, this is the lens to get.
