I've always thought the heavily armored USB drives were a bit of a gimmick, but ComputerWorld writer Robert Mitchell seems to need one - he lost his last USB drive in the snow and ended up crushing it with his car. To replace the lost drive, Robert purchased a Kingston DataTraveler Secure, which has a titanium-reinforced hide, claims of being waterproof and data encryption and put the drive through some grueling physical tests to prove its worthiness. You can read the review and learn about Robert's findings here.
