Anyone who works with large files should consider the StarTech InfoSafe 2.5" USB 2.0 On-The-Go Drive Enclosure as an essential tool. This offers a cheap solution for those who do not want to fork out extra dough for an expensive portable hard drive. You can fit any compatible 2.5" hard drive into the travel-friendly storage unit and you're good to go. The StarTech InfoSafe 2.5" USB 2.0 On-The-Go Drive is able to work independently of a PC. Just hook it up to any USB device like a digital audio player or digital camera and transfer all the files to the enclosed hard drive at the touch of a single button. This device is hot-swappable, making it easy to connect and disconnect without shutting down the computer. It is powered by a quartet of AA batteries. Make sure the 2.5" hard drive used is formatted with FAT 32 and not NTFS. There are 2 models available to consumers - the IDE enclosure will set you back by $62.99 while the SATA model is a wee bit more expensive at $69.99. It is compatible with both Mac and Windows platforms.
Pros : Hot swappable, portable, affordable solution
