 If you are looking to purchase a portable hard drive, you have numerous options to choose from. One of the most important purchasing questions is: “Should I buy a flash drive or a portable hard drive?” Some people are generally unaware there is a difference. There are benefits to both products and taking time to learn and understand them will assist you in making the purchase that is right for you.
Price Considerations When Choosing Your Portable Hard Drive
Price is a big advantage of portable hard drives when compared to flash drives (or pen drives, thumb drives, jump drives, and USB sticks). If you are looking for storage space, hard drives offer much more space for less money. When you get into the higher capacity flash drives, like 32GB models, things start getting really expensive. A 32GB flash drive is many times more expensive than a conventional portable hard drive with up to five times the capacity.
With the ever increasing need for storing and securing data, and with the prices of portable hard drives coming down, you have every reason to go with a high capacity pocket hard drive. Pocket hard drives come in 2GB, 4GB, 6GB, 8GB, 12GB, 20GB, 40GB, 60GB, 80GB, 100GB, 120GB, and 160GB capacities. This is a much higher range of capacities than with flash drives which are usually around 2GB and 4GB. Learn more about portable hard drive technology by visiting http://www.iomagic.com.
Lifespan of Portable Hard Drives
Portable hard drives offer another big advantage over flash drives: USB flash drives have a limited number of write and erase cycles before failure, and write operations will gradually slow as the device ages. Alternatively, pocket hard dives offer many more write/erase cycles, and last longer. Consider buying a pocket hard drive if you will be using your device frequently and are looking for something that will last a long time.
Software and Capacity With Portable Hard Drives
Many assume that external hard drives are large and expensive and therefore buy lower capacity flash drives, but this is no longer true. 1” Microdrives allow manufacturers to make highly compact external data storage devices in capacities up to 12GB. There are also slightly larger, 1.8” and 2.5” portable hard drives that go up to 160GB. These will soon be available in 320GB capacity. You can currently put a 160GB portable hard drive in your pocket for a very reasonable price. That much data storage space is impossible with flash based thumb drives.

 Glasses with music playback, an eccentric idea! Oakley’s previous efforts at shoehorning music playback into a pair of shades have been less than stellar. The new Split Thump, says the swanky specs-maker, is different. These sunglasses actually look like the sort of thing a normal person might wear. In addition, it is true, to an extent. They do look a lot slicker and sexier than the old Thumps, with a polished black frame and grey-tinted lenses. They’re lightweight too, and the fact that they’re sweat-resistant makes them suitable for joggers and other keep-fit nuts.
Musically, the Thump provides a surprisingly good sound. Two adjustable clip-on headphones slip easily into your lugholes and pump full, bass audio with crisp mids and highs. You get music onto the specs using USB: once connected, you can sync files up using Windows Media Player, or just drag and drop them old school-style. AAC, WMA and MP3 formats are all supported, but DRM-protected files are off the set of choices, unfortunately. Despite the buttons and controls being basic (they’re located on either side of the specs) the lack of a screen means finding a particular track can take a while. Still, with six hours of battery life per charge, you don’t need to be in too much of a hurry.
All in all, we’re not quite sure what to make of the Split Thump though; it’s certainly Oakley’s best pair of MP3 playing sunglasses to date.

Those days are finally over as a neat and tiny USB Charger and surge protector is available and his is just for YOU!! This tiny and very useful device does away with the need to have multiple wires and other gadgets at your disposal at all times. So, it is time you say goodbye to cluttered tables and over filled sockets. Our prayers have finally been head by Belkin. Their approach is very innovative. They believe in being small and being neat and with this Belkin looks to have taken care of their Dual USB Power Adapter and Monster Power Outlets to which they have finally settled in one handy package. Taking it at face value it is not a great step forward for science but it is a great help to making your place tidy. At $25 I don’t see any harm.
