This drive has a great deal going for it, not only does it live up to its boasts of being “the world’s smallest external 2.5″ hard drive” it also looks good, its very functional, easy to use and the rubber casing gives a cushioned and protective feel – ideal if your on the move. Because its rubber encased there is no need to worry about scratches or getting the enclosure cracked like with other drive designs on the market.
Out of the packaging it couldn’t be simpler, plug and play, no need for a power adapter and when you’re done it really is small and light enough to put in your pocket.
There is a quirky little tag on the side of this drive. You can see it in some of the product images, on this tag is the designers name “Sylvain Willenz”, not having heard the name I did a little online research and found he is a young and somewhat famous in his field Belgian designer. Nice to know there is some outside design influence that goes into computer products!
I can’t fault this product, hence 5 stars.

Bought to go with a new HD satellite receiver. Works superbly and records HD content and being so small sits unobtrusively next to receiver. Very pleased!

Had this drive for a few weeks now and I’m extremely pleased with it. It comes as FAT32 and has freecom sychro software on it, so the first thing I did was to ditch the software, formated to NTFS and partitioned to suit my needs. Yes OK, the supplied lead is extremely short, but inserted gently it easily supports the weight of the drive, so haven’t needed to replace the lead, so far. I was concerned about the protruding logo tab in the picture, but it’s soft rubber and no problem at all. I bought with the case advertised – which is too big for the drive, and not big enough to carry CDs too, but I would recommend as it offers that bit more protection. Overall – a valued purchase.

A very good drive. Neat and tidy way of expanding my netbook memory. USB connection cable fine for me> If you need it longer then you need to buy an extensionUSB A male to A Female Extension Cable 0.5m which could come in handy for other things

This mobile drive is small, neat, fits easily into a handbag, no long wires, no need for its own power source (just plugs into a usb socket). I can store all my thousands of photos on it. Only drawback is lack of on/off switch.
