Kodak Z990 MAX Bundle Review :
I have purchased 5 iomega hard drives in the past, and they have all worked beautifully, except this one. So even though I was furious that it didn’t work out, the fact that my past experiences with iomega have been great, I’m willing to give them a mulligan. The cable is 3.0 and I was under the impression that it could work with a regular 2.0. It doesn’t, at least not this one. The input connection appears to be bad (although perhaps that is the way it is supposed to look?).
