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

By	James McGyver - 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 a bit faster then my old Seagate, 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 durable and cost effective tool that will not disappoint.

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE IT!!!, August 9, 2009

By	SurferGurl96770 - See all my reviews

I love the way my new hard drive works. All of my downloads are simple and fast. All of my music, school work and pics easily loaded up on this hard drive. Its way much faster and lighter then my old seagate clunker. Its even fallen off my desk a couple of times. Amazingly it still works. This thing really is shock proof. I don't know what the other reader was saying about it not being light. I'm 120 pounds and its light enough for me to put in my purse or backpack. I guess maybe he needs to switch breakfast cereals or something. It may not be as pretty as some of those shiny ones at best buy but it out does all of them. I love it. This one is a keeper.
