2Does Not Work As AdvertisedAug 24, 2010
I like the safe itself, but my external hard drive does not work using the safe's through-the-wall USB connection. So, as with any other safe, I have to open the safe, take out my hard drive, attach it to my computer, download, and then return the hard drive to the safe. However much the USB connection feature added to the cost of my safe, it wasn't worth it because it does not work.

4Missing waterproof gasketJun 25, 2010
When I received the safe, I didn't believe it was water-proof. I emailed their support department explaining that the cover doesn't close tight and I asked if there is supposed to be a waterproof gasket. I got a response back saying it was waterproof and they attached a PDF with product features. I watched a video on their website and could see that there was supposed to be a gasket on the lid. Frustrated, I called customer support and she told me they would ship the gasket from the factory next door. Otherwise, seems to be exactly what I am looking for. (I still haven't received the gasket and it has been 2 weeks)

5It's bigApr 16, 2010
It's big! It's bigger than I expected. Did I say it was big? Had a hard time finding a place to put it. Hopefully, I will never know how good it is, because you won't know until your house burns down. I run VMware fusion on my Mac desktop. I created a Virtual Machine with all my office software in it, accounts receivables, accountants parables, etc. I keep the virtual machine image on a small 500G hard drive in this unit. Therefore, all my records should be safe in case of a fire. I wish I could have two drives in this unit unit for my time machine too.

4USB pass-through port has some problemsApr 16, 2010
Like other reviewers, I had issues using drives with this pass-through USB port that work fine when plugged directly into a computer. There appears to be a voltage or current drop in the USB pass-through that keeps some bus-powered drives from working. Luckily, the optional power cord that came with my drive enclosure (StarTech InfoSafe SAT2520U2ER) has such small wires (reminds me of headphone wires), that I can close the lid over the external power cord. So now I have an always-on, RAID-1 mirrored, fireproof, and probably still waterproof (despite the thin power cord I'm having to close the lid over) file cabinet for my most important digital information. And there's still room for my passport and about a terabyte of DL BD-RE discs. In a small San Francisco apartment, this beats the heck out of having to store this important information on paper in a file cabinet that would fill a closet and not even be fireproof and waterproof.

3Updated... Sentry has good customer serviceApr 02, 2010
Final update... my first safe I received was defective... the lid did not close tightly. Sentry sent me a replacement that not defective and the lid closes securely and tightly. MAKE SURE YOUR SAFE'S LID CLOSES TIGHTLY!! Mine could be opened about an 1/8 inch, which doesn't sound like much. This would've prevented it from providing effective potection in the event of a fire and then subsequent water damage.

As an update to what I wrote below... I can say that Sentry has good customer service (once you get through to a live person). After a small amount of trouble shooting on the phone they decided my safe is defective and they will replace it once I send in the serial # from the bottom of the safe, the USB cable, and keys. Once they recieve those items, they will send my replacement safe, then I'll finally be able to rate the safe.

I've been eagerly awaiting the arrival of my new safe and was very disappointed with what I received. I attempted to call customer service but was simply disconnected after a recorded message so I'm now relying on email. I believe the email I sent to Sentry's customer service explains my issues...

To Whom It May Concern,

I received a damaged safe in a factory sealed box. The lid on the safe does not latch tightly; it can be opened about 1/8". The primary cause seems to be movement of the lock mechanism (the left side of the lock is not securely fastened to the body of the safe), but the loose hinge also allows movement. I did a test using a teaspoon of water and found that the lid's movement does prevent the safe from being water proof (I was careful not to expose any of the electronic areas to moisture). Another issue I have with the product was the presence of mold on the inside of the safe... what an environmental safety hazard!! The safe also has scratches on the outside surface, none of the scratches are severe, but this is a brand new product straight from the box. Please contact me so we can discuss replacement.

Sincerely,

*****************

Issues with my new safe:
1. Defective lock/ hinge construction
2. Mold in safe and on instruction manual
3. Scratches
4. Unable to talk to live customer service

I will hopefully be following up on my experience in a few days.
