Memorex's Newest Drive is Big AND Small
Filed in archive Storage Stuff by Eric Hanson on January 11, 2007
- They're decently sized - the 2.5" drive technology makes for a smaller unit that weighs only half a pound and, if the picture is to scale, the Ultra TravelDrive is about the length of a pair of Sunglasses
, making it a lot easier to carry around than some of the other backup options out there. - It looks pretty well protected. The press release mentions a "double-injected black rubberized grip area" and "rugged construction." I don't think you'll be able to drop these drives off a building or anything like that, but they should be good for going on the road.
- No external power supply required. 'nough said.
- Each unit comes with two extra face plates, so you can customize your look or, if you're a real geek, quickly distinguish between drives. To be honest, I think we're still dealing with this color coding business because of a computer Apple made eight years ago, but I guess people still like it. Anyway, if color customization is your thing, you can have it with this drive.
