XXS - Xtra Xtra Small ?, 20 Aug 2008
By Mr. D. C. Quick “Daveq78″

“This drive has a great deal going for it, not only does it live up to its boasts of being “the world’s smallest external 2.5″ hard drive” it also looks good, its very functional, easy to use and the rubber casing gives a cushioned and protective feel - ideal if your on the move. Because its rubber encased there is no need to worry about scratches or getting the enclosure cracked like with other drive designs on the market…”

very good, with some flaws, 25 Sep 2008

“Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What’s this?)
This is a great product, It works like a charm, no problems at all, connect and ready to go. The capacity is massive, you can store a huge number of songs, photos, and other digital content. It is very silent, which is quite good. I am using it with a laptop running XP SP2, and so far not a problem. It is very small, smaller than WD’s Passport Drive. It looks stylish, nice black finish. So the good points are: great capacity, fast connection, easy to use, no installation or separate power supply required…”

Small, plain but beautiful!, 16 Oct 2008
By Glezza (UK) - See all my reviews

“OK, the worst bit about this drive I’ll get out of the way straight away… the USB cable, great if you have a Laptop, but for someone who is using this as a “take your files with you drive”, this cable is just plain ridiculous. And although it’s harsh to do this, a star is lopped off straight away for this, these cables are cheap to produce, and providing such a small cable is such a bad decision for what is otherwise a wonderful little drive…”
