Iomega Rev still alive!
Yep, that’s right, this thing still exists! The new Rev drive holds 120 gigabytes of data and is backwards compatible with older cartridges.
Honestly, I don’t know what the hell they are thinking. There have been numerous attempts at making a new floppy-like storage medium, and with the exception of the now dead-and-buries Zip drive, they [...]
Really tiny portable harddrive
Wow! Now that’s what I call a portable harddrive! And it’s got a decent capacity: 500 Gb! I have a 500 gig external harddrive on my desk and it’s the size of a book. This drive is aimed at mobile users and is entirely bus-powered. Unfortunately, it has only Firewire connectors (Firewire 400 and 800), [...]

Here’s a card reader with a few really cool extras. First of all, it supports literally every kind of memory card in the world. In total, 62 different formats are supported! I had no idea there were so many. In addition to the card reader, the device has:

This is similar to U3, [...]
Folder USB Drive
Art Lebedev Studios, creators of the insanely expensive Optimus Keyboard, have made a USB drive that’s hopefully a bit less expensive. This drive not only holds folders, it looks like one!
Firewire flash drive
USB 2.0 may be fast, but Firewire is even faster. This flash drive has a Firewire connection instead of the usual USB, making it lightning fast and perfect for transferring large files.
There are, however, two major drawbacks. First of all, not all computers have a Firewire port, while USB is everywhere. Second, it’s expensive as [...]
Corsair Flash Survivor survives beating
A while ago I posted an article about the Corsair Flash Survivor, claimed to be the toughest USB drive ever. Phoronix has tested exactly how tough it is!
Here’s the torment the poor device had to endure: get drowned in a chlorinated pool, boiled in water for several minutes and a beating with a hammer. Apparently, [...]
