Advantages: Reliability and efficiency

Disadvantages: None

Small portable hard drives have become very common these days with most electronic manufacturers producing them. So, the question is what separates this one from any of the others on the market?

I think with these things it simply boils down to reliability. I have found that mostly they are easy to use and this one is no exception. It is ready to go as soon as you remove it from its packaging. No software installation is required although this may be dependant on the operating system you are using. I was using Window Vista and it popped up straight away.

This device seems to be fairly fast. Again this is tricky to tell as often computer dependant but I have used mine on a number of different machines, including a Mac, and it has worked swiftly. As it has a USB 2 connection it can transfer about 1 GB in about 2 mins on a good day.

As far as reliability is concerned, I think this is the best I have had and so far (believe me i am touching all the wood I can find!!!) I haven't had a problem. I wish I could say the same for other brands so thus far this one has won.
