Freecom has unleashed their latest portable memory solution.
The Mobile Drive XXS; said to be the smallest and lightest 2.5-inch USB drive on the market.
What Freecom have done is taken a Samsung 2.5-inch laptop hard drive, swapped the SATA connector for a mini USB connector, and placed it inside an injection-moulded rubber sleeve.
The Mobile Drive XXS is available in 160GB, 250GB and 320GB capacities, for £45, £60 and £80 respectively.
If you’re still unsure – put those prices in comparison with the going price of a 64GB USB flash drive being £150.
