It is really tempting to buy this product. Need to save some>>> for My next purchase. Instead of buying SD card I would choose this product.

By the way this product is how many years warranty?

 

[EastGear]

so, i guess it does not work on MAC OSX??

At the moment, there is no support of MAC OS.

As the user cannot change the hard disk of the PD6X by himself, what to do if he needs to replace (a damaged or crashed) or upgrade one? Send it back to Eastgear ?

The harddisk in the PD6X IS USER REPLACEABLE that's why we do sell the PD6X without the harddisk, so that you can buy your own harddisk and install in them.

Does the new "X" version of the Compact Drive support Compact Flash cards formatted with FAT 32?

Does the new "X" version of the Compact Drive have a hinge on the door that opens to access the memory card slots, or does it still have the pop off plastic cover that will soon lost?

Thanks
