Overall, I found that this device greatly helped me transfer a large number of documents, music and video files between multiple computers. With out the modest 4GB capacity of this device these transfers would have taken a lot longer to accomplish, requiring multiple trips between computers rather than just one.
Packaged with the mini drive is a very short USB extension cable and leather pouch. The cable is only useful if the mini drive's size won't allow it to fit directly into the USB port. However the cable is not long enough to allow an extension to a port to the front of the computer for easy access. The leather pouch does not seem to provide must protection for the drive other than preventing buffs and scratches to the casing. It has a belt loop in case you desire to have your mini drive at your side at all times. The mini drive includes a one year warranty with toll-free technical support should you ever encounter difficulties with your drive.
This drive would not be ideal for users who are looking for a small drive to transfer a few small files between computers. Users looking to transfer a large number of files at a time or transfer large files would find the DiskGO 1" Mini Portable Hard Drive a good option. Its small size, high capacity and low price make it a great tool to have on hand.
