I Wanna: Pocket USB Hard Drive

Posts: 168 Forumite
Hope one of you eagle eyed money savers can help.
I'm after a pocket (about 1" in size) USB hard drive, preferably 4Gb capacity - not a USB memory stick one which is flash based.
Something similar to the below:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/CiBox-USB2-Powered-Mini-Drive/dp/B000JXL3BI/sr=1-10/qid=1168951618/ref=sr_1_10/026-0624053-7022838?ie=UTF8&s=electronics
The going rate seems to be about £30 for 4Gb of storage.
However, thought I would see if anyone knows of any deals on at the moment.
TIA.

Out of curiosity, why would you go for a hard drive as opposed to a flash based one?Stompa0

Yes, why HDD instead of flash?
Less reliable, slower to access and more expensive considering SVP have 4GB flash based drives for about £26.

Couple of reasons:
1) Wasn't aware that 4Gb flash USB memory sticks were available at that price
2) The pocket HDD tend to come with sync software
3) Have had files on flash sticks corrupt on me in the past0
