Its sleek lines and ultra-low profile styling makes you want to put it on a shelf and stare, but it easily slides into your pocket for ultimate portability.
The new SimpleDrive portable has style plus. The stylish lines of the SimpleDrive comes from the designers at Pininfarina, the very same design firm that gave the Ferrari sports car its stylish lines.
4 of 5Good product Tuesday, May 20, 2008 Mani from Chicago IL
Easy to use, light and good product. The only disadvantage is speed. It takes more time to transfer files to HD. I have another HD which is faster.
Overall great product.

5 of 5Very nice little thing Tuesday, May 13, 2008 Dave from Boulder, CO
I bought this external hard drive about 3 weeks ago on Buy.com and let me just say I'm really satisfied with it! The design is really nice; sleek and shinny. The usage is very simple: you simply use it just like how you would a flash drive; plug it in your computer and it shows up on your screen in about 30 seconds. Transferring rate is impressive as well as the overall performance. No noise at all, maybe a little clicking sound indicating the drive is kicking into gear when you powering it up. After that it's just silence. However I have heard from one of my friends that you can't let it work for too long (hours at a time) because it could potentially overheat and die...But if you use abuse it reasonably I think it will last quite a long time.
I definitely recommend this drive to anyone that doesn't need a whole lot of space for a good value. Plus most drive usually die within the 2-3 years range anyway so this one is backed by a 3-year warranty, which is extra nice.
