5.0 out of 5 stars Fast, Durable & Cost Effective , April 1, 2009

By	Oceanman (St. Georges Island, Bermuda) - See all my reviews

The Transcend StoreJet 25 USB 2.0 is a combination of maximum storage and simplicity at its best. Sleek, durable and fast, this 2.5" external hard drive comes out of the box ready to perform. This stealthy system is lightweight and packed with a 500GB external hard drive that simply leaves the higher priced competition in the dust.

The StoreJet 25 is built around a standard 2.5 inch SATA hard disk that spins at 5,400 rotations per minute with 8MB of cache. Powered via USB port, the drive draws its juice directly from the host sytem. Speed read is rated up to 28 megs per second and write speeds cruised in at 24 megs. This system is encased in a solid red or black colored, military grade impact resistant shell.

Fitted with a convenient one button setup on top of the unit, owners can launch StoreJet backup software. Simple to use, the drive can be set to remember files/folders to store in the preferences folder. Scheduling backups and setting security levels is a snap. File compression is always a good choice to remember. The only thing missing is Firewire support.

Gig for gig, the StoreJet 25 comes in at incredible low cost of almost 12 cents per gigabyte. Built for portability, the manufacturer was thinking compact all the way (4.5" H x 3.2" W x 0.6" D). It weighs in at almost 8 ounces. With the standard Transcend 2 year product warranty, the StoreJet 25 brings it on. I highly recommend this product as a fast, durable and cost effective tool that will not disappoint.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Quality Product from TRANSCEND, June 7, 2009

By	S. Whitworth "Hannah's Mommy" (Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really like to purchase Transcend products and own a couple of their well crafted flash drives. Alas, I could not pass this beautiful and ample hard drive by. It was nicely priced and well manufactured. You can not go wrong with Transcend. This little baby is a plug and play. Nothing to install. As soon as I plugged it into my pc, it was recognized. You can never have too much storage space. I will be using mine to store digital photos.

In addition, this hard drive is the size of my hand, which is a medium female hand. The hard drive is small and compact. Keep in mind it is 500 gig, so it is not the smallest external drive you can get, but it is quite compact all the same.

If you need to store videos, music, or digital photos...this one is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Transcend StoreJet 500GB Portable HD, June 9, 2009

By	Gatr2003 (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews

The product arrived quickly from Amazon - so far works very well. I love the mobility of it since I share it with two laptops and a desktop. Data access is quick, and I haven't had any problems connecting/disconnecting from each computer.
