A large 1Gb USB flash drive
Personal Computer World, 08 Apr 2005
Larger ImageOriginally seen as nothing more than a novelty, USB flash drives provide a quick and easy way of transferring files between systems.
With a hefty 1GB capacity, Iomega's latest Micro Mini finally offers enough space to hold a decent amount of data. USB2 performance means you don't have to wait too long for files to transfer and you even get an extension cable - a must for those with a tower under the desk. Three coloured swappable covers, a keychain and keyring complete the package.
The only downside with this neat little product is the price. With rivals such as Crucial offering 1GB drives for less than £60, including password and encryption software, Iomega's £139.99 seems just a little steep. Still, we're certainly in no hurry to give it back.
