Amazon.com Product Description: Thanks to the deliciously sleek styling by famed Italian car designer Pininfarina, the SimpleTech Signature Mini 250 GB USB 2.0 Portable Drive isn't just another external hard drive. The recipient of the same magic design touch and attention to fine details that helped turn Ferrari and Maserati into icons of the automotive world, the Signature Mini will certainly turn heads as you make your way through the day with your work files, or your latest videos, photos and songs.
Get used to the staring, because when you take this drive out into the public, heads will turn. With its Ferrari-inspired lines, this delicious Bubblegum-colored Signature Mini is as much a piece of fine art as a piece of robust hardware. Despite being a compact 3.1 x 4.9 x 0.8-inches (WxDxH), the drive won't be slipping out of your hands, thanks to its velvety texture that offers you a secure grip for your hands. And the drive's two rubber strips at the bottom will keep it from slipping across your desk. With the included USB 2.0 "Y" cable, the Signature Mini gets its power from your computer, meaning there's no bulky AC adapter to carry around or forget. Just grab the drive and cable, plug it into a computer, and you'll be ready to go. Powerful Local and Online Backup Options SimpleTech includes two backup options that will keep your mind at ease about your important data. In fact, SimpleTech's Signature Mini Drives are the first drives in the world to offer both local and online backup capabilities. With the included Fabrik Local Backup software, you can set up automatic backups from your computer to your Signature Mini. But for the ultimate in protection, the Signature Mini also offers the Fabrik Ultimate Backup solution that uploads your files to a secure, online server that will protect your data from real-world mishaps and offer near-real time protection without bogging down your computer. (Although the Signature Mini is both Mac and PC compatible, at this time the Fabrik Ultimate Backup solution is only available for Windows-based computers.)

 Rating:  - Stopped working after a month...not a reliable storage deviceI was getting rid of my desktop computer as I was moving to overseas, so naturally I needed a storage device to temporally store my data just till I have purchased a new one. It took me about a month to settle down in the new country and buy a new desktop. Believe it or not, as I was about to transfer data to the new computer, the drive failed. I can hear the drive running, but the computer won't recognize the drive at all. I've tried it on multiple computers and none recognized the drive. I'll ...

Won't connect to my computer anymore which is great because I have some songs on there I backed up, but can't get to now. Not too cool having a back up drive that fails.

I couldn't get any of them to recognize the device and the device just flashed a red light and beeped when plugged in to any of the USB ports. I also have a WD passport and use it constantly and love it, highly recommend. I'm taking this one back and getting another WD. Rating:  - Works like a charm except the backup softwareThe drive is flawless and works well. The issue I have is with the ArcSoft backup software. It's very basic and doesn't really give you a lot of options. Rating:  - Great productTransfers quickly, looks great and holds my entire computer with over 100 gbs to spare. I'm also guaranteed never to confuse it with someone else's because of the hot pink finish. The backup software that comes with it, however, works really slowly. I use my own... |
