Disadvantages: The color orange is not my fave
This nifty lil external hard drive is a great item when your on the move and using a laptop and you need to backup some important files. It easy to tote around and can fit in your hand. You can get them from 250G-500G. I have the 250G which is enough for me and my business files. I also keep my photos and family vids on there too... i learned the hard way and lost a lot of vids and photos when computer crashed. With this helpful hard drive I don't ... ...It's shock resistant rubber sides help out a lot... I dropped this twice on my travels and it still works! I wouldn't chuck the thing at a wall but if you drop it on accident on a carpeted floor there's a good chance it will still work. It's light weight which is a plus too!
Most external drives (including this one) now a days are plug and play which is extremely perfect for those on the go and that are not very tech savvy. I am very happy with ...

Iomega eGo, smart portable hard disk
Review of Iomega eGo Portable hard drive - 250 GB - Hi-Speed USB by
shunyo
Advantages: well designed, shock resistant, 250 GB, Good price
Disadvantages: n/a
Its one of the few nicely designed portable hard disks in the market as of now, others are plain or boring black or similar but this looks more like a flashy flask, so you can flaunt it while using it. while it fulfills all the other requirements of a portable hard disk of storing loads of data which is 250 GB in this case which is quite a lot, this one is more reliable as it is designed to take the bumpy ride you might take while traveling anywhere, ...

...recently purchased the Western Digital MY BOOK Essential edition external hard drive for storing my digital photos and home movies. I made my purchase at Wal-Mart and paid $79.88. This exteranl hardrive is simple to set up and use. I had it up and running in less than 10 minutes and this included upacking it. You basically just need to up pack, plug it into your outlet and into your computer and you are ready to go. I was able to quickly back up ... ...It is compatable with both my laptop and desktop computers. It will store up to about 90,000 JPGs or 80,000 MP3s. It uses a USB connection to interface with the computer and is compatable with Windows Vista, XP and 2000. This is a great buy for the money and I am even thinking of getting a second so that me and my husband do not have to share. ...
