1.0 out of 5 stars Poor Design
I have purchased two of these hard drives and have had the same problem with both devices. The connection to the USB port inside the device becomes unsoldered and breaks.

Although this is the smallest (and nicest looking) portable hard drive I have seen, this design issue makes this item NOT worth the risk of purchasing.
