I'm big on storage -- never can have too much, you know!
Having battled the too-much-data-on-too-small-capacity-media syndrome for what seems like centuries (20th and 21st), I think I've finally found just what I'm looking for in a storage device -- small size, big capacity (and how about a great form factor and compact size!).
Seagate's USB 2.0 Pocket Hard Drive safely stores all of my large files, MP3s, photos, videos and games — in a palm-sized drive that can fit inside my pocket. The Seagate 6GB Pocket Drive is available on Amazon for less than $49 and the Seagate 8GB Pocket Drive is available for less than $139.
The sleek, round shell can take a licking and keeping on ticking (thanks Timex!) so I don't need to worry about my data -- but is that really possible not to worry at least a little bit?
Hot swappable and powered by the USB bus, this eliminates the need for power cords or adapters.
The details:
- 6GB and 8GB capacities (latter stores 133 hours of digital music, 2,560 digital photos or 8 hours of digital video )
- Rugged design
- Secure Zone software for simple password protection
- No power cords or adaptors required — powered by the USB bus
