Digital camera reviews of 100GB USB 2.5 Simple Drive Portable Black
Digital camera Review: Excellent Hard Drive
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using the SimpleTech External 250 Gig and the SimpleTech Portable 100 Gig Drive for a little while now. They have added a year to the life of my hard drives.
From a programmer's perspective these drives have been great. I use them for running 4 different virtual machines using Microsoft's Virtual PC and Virtual Server. They are great for hosting the latest VPC instances Microsoft has been dumping out
USB 2.0 is a definite must though. They are slow as mud if you aren't using USB 2.0.
For digital image storage they are great. When we go on vacation I usually end up with about 7-10 gigs of photos.
I guess the best thing they bring to the table is mobility between my PC at work, my work laptop, and my PC's and laptops at home. I currently do all my work on them.
One thing to note is that the external drives can be bought for about $100.00 less than the smaller portable ones. The small one is much more convenient than the larger one to carry around, but for the price I decided to be a little inconvenienced. It was worth it.
Both have been worth the $$$. They have save me a ton of time going between different environments.
