Bag yourself a large-capacity, stylish external drive, courtesy of MacFormat

MacFormat has teamed up with Iomega to offer a bumper crop of 500GB Iomega MiniMax drives to our readers. These are great drives, so don’t hang around. The first six correct entrants will each receive a drive.


You can never have too much storage, and external drives are particularly handy for storing duplicates of your photos and files. Aside from the obvious Mac looks of a MiniMax drive, which perfectly apes the Mac mini and the new AirPort Extreme Base Station, it also ticks all the right boxes in terms of capacity. You can also stack either Apple box with a MiniMax so no extra desktop space is wasted.

On offer here is the newly enlarged 500GB version of Iomega’s award winning drive. That’s plenty of space for movies, photos and files. Three USB ports and three FireWire 400 ports give you a generous number of options for networking the drive. With this many powered ports you could easily double up a MiniMax as a hub. It also makes a great drive to turn into a wireless storage dump; simply run a cable between the drive and an AirPort Extreme and instantly create a large networked drive for everyone in range to share.

The drive is fast at 7,200rpm. In our tests it stacked up well against other brands. Unlike some competitors it also comes with its own on/off button so doesn’t rely on powering up and down with your Mac.

Iomega produces this drive in other capacities and has many other Mac friendly products. For more information on the MiniMax visit www.iomega-europe.com
