best features on any portable hard drive - and only £89.99 also the best price! - just bought one of these and the image doesn t do it justice - it has a really dark black matt finish,top quality feel to the product and I do believe that it is shock proof as well! The best feature is the wrap around USB cable - most other portable drives have a separate detachable USB cable which always gets lost - the clever people at Buffalo have permantly attached the cable ( very securely ) and the cable wraps around the drive with the USB connection locking it all together in a neat package - buffalo s wrap around cable management system should be on all portablr HDD s - would recommend this over all other drives 100 %
so cool - had one of these drives for 6 months i cant beleave how cool running these are luke warm is as hot as it gets ever forget the sata usb drives they get to hot when running for a long time
Buffalo 500GB Ministation - Just upgraded to this model from a previous Buffalo Drive and couldn t be happier, the transfer rate is quicker than anything else I have used, totally powered by the USB cable so no bulky power supply, shock proof and all for under £100. I especially like the new cable tidy they include as it is such a pain trying to find the cable in a bag to connect the drive when you are on an airplane, with this drive the cable is strung round the drive and never gets lost. Overall i d rate this as the best value for money and best performing portable drive I have seen.
