This is a lovely looking drive with a glossy black finish. I bought mine to pair up with my WD TV Player and haven't looked back since. It has super fast USB 3, which can be up to 3x faster than USB2! It is also downwards compatible with USB 2. It's very portable too, as like the name says it's only as big as a passport, and about 1cm thick. And the great thing is it doesn't require an external power supply as it gets it's power from the USB port.	+ Small drive with drive with super fast USB 3.	- USB 3 lead is a little short.	21/07/2011	9 out of 10
