idrive portable hard drive

It’s not as if we aren’t already spoilt for choice when it comes to portable hard drives but this particular portable HDD , known as the iDrive Portable, manages to distinguish itself from the masses not only due to the fact that it’s the slimmest and lightest portable USB hard drive in its class but because not only will it offer you ability to make one-click local backups of important files and documents but it also offers you the ability to backup your backup online for that little extra piece of mind.

    I am not sure why an online storage provider would also peddle a hardware storage device. Once I store my files online on a site like Box.net or MyOtherDrive.com, I don’t have to worry about loss, theft, or hardware damage.
