Been looking for one at a reasonable price for ages so hope there are others looking too who can benefit.:T

But they've been selling a 1TB one for under £70, which is a far better deal.

This is a pocket portable 2.5" usb powered drive, with mainly laptop users in mind, so you are not comparing like with like.


Has been available for a while at this price and you can get it at Comet for a few pence more. Nice neat drive.

It's not a few more pence on top. It costs more than £50 with the same model. I guess "IT WAS" a few more pence expensive but not now.

Horses for courses!
The person I've bought this for has certain specific requirements and this drive meets those requirements.
Bigger is not ALWAYS 'better'!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Thanks, my teenage son wants one of these to use with his laptop but has been finding them too expensive, he has got enough Christmas money for this so I have ordered one for him :money:

Got one on Monday at Comet for £39.14, so 2 pence more, however it is now £15.85 dearer now so they (Comet) must be happy with their reduced stock levels, seems Tesco have an endless supply.

Still very neat.

I got 3 of them last week, they are very good and fast too.

My parents, girlfriend and myself all have more external backup now.

Parents and g/f both run laptops and this is perfect, no extra power cable required like a lot of the others.

The USB cable has 2 connectors on the pc side if the computer cannot provide enough power through 1. Both laptops have no bother at all though on battery power using 1 connector.

250 gb is easily enough to keep all the precious photos safe.

I have debated leaving mine at work with all the data incase my apartment burns down or something.

Cannot be too safe with the memories!

Excellent buy!
