    Wow! It's so orange and portable, just like most portable hard drives, well, without the orange part, but hey that's what makes it unique. You should buy it.

    A bit expensive but well built and thought through in design. I especially like the wrap around tucked in cable, beats a tangled up mess of cords when traveling.

    Purchased it and it went down on the 1st day.. maybe i just got a defective one but i didnt bother repurchasing or exchanging. The 3/5 stars is for the design, and rugged build. Almost certain if i got a replacement i would have been good. Just left a bad taste for a HD to fail in the 1st day though.
