Damn, I have one of these that I use a lot for work, it's been pretty reliable so far, but this makes me think I should get something else to replace it...
Same here -- had one at a previous job and thought it was great. Got another one for my current job, and just bought another one for my Dad. I think the takeaway here is what we've always known though, which is to never trust your storage solutions. As long as there's multiple copies, I think it's okay to continue using them.
I have one as well. Did the firmware update a few months ago when it would periodically just start skipping or stop responding (I have my music collection on it). Haven't had an issue since.
