Verbatim 500gig Hard-drive

In a nutshell: Need cute-looking storage for all your digital goodies? Look no further!

What’s it like? Well, it’s a hard-drive, so it does hard-drivey things… like get plugged in and used for storage. It’s got a really posh finish, which along with the bright colour options, means it looks fab next to any computer! And it’s good to go out the box, so there’s no need to waste hours trying to set it up. Just plug ’n play, baby!

What’s hot? So much storage space in such a compact body! And the colours! There’s no more boring black, grey or whites for us! Also, the hard-drive’s powered through its USB connection, so there’s no need for AC power! Score!

What’s cold? USB2-only connectivity… not that it’s the end of the world, but a Firewire option would’ve been nice. Also, there’s no protective carry bag that so many other portable hard-drives come with.

Verdict: Sure, it’s just another hard-drive. But it’s not… ’cos it’s prettier, thanks to the pinks and blues and yellows it comes in! And the 500gig capacity means you’ve got more than enough space for your portable needs!
