The Highlander Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Firm launches 'world's smallest' external HDD Japanese peripherals specialist Elecom has introduced what it claims is the world's smallest external hard drive. Its MF-DU204G packs in 4GB of storage capacity yet is sufficiently small to warrant its own, integrated USB connector. The secret? The use of a bus-powered 0.85in HDD, Elecom said. The drive is packed into a unit that measures 6.8 x 3 x 1.3cm and weighs just 44g. The company bundles a USB extender cable should the drive prove too large and obscure other USB ports. Elecom also bundles USB Disk Pro, a security utility that password-protects the drive. The drive ships in both metallic blue and silver versions, Elecom said, for around ¥26,800 (£131/$227). ® See article here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
