The other day I asked if it still made sense to buy a mammoth hard drive. For my money, the smarter buy is a compact, portable, smaller-capacity drive that's fast, affordable, and USB-powered.

Compatible with Windows and Mac systems alike (though you'll need to reformat it for use with the latter), the … Read more

The look and concept were designed by V-Moda's Val Kolton in Milan, Italy, … Read more
