The 500GB LifeStudio Mobile Plus USB 2.0 Hard Drive with 4GB USB Key (White) from Hitachi is an especially portable solution for storing, organizing, and traveling with files from your Mac or Windows computer. This compact, sleek hard drive has a 2.5" form factor and allows you to store up to 500GB of files. It comes with a convenient USB cradle so you can prop it up and then connect it to your computer via a USB 2.0 interface. In addition, when you need to travel or are on the go and don't want to take the entire hard drive, you can take the included USB key. It can hold up to 4GB of your files.
When your desktop computer is connected to the hard drive, the LifeStudio software preloaded on the hard drive finds and organizes your files, such as photos, movies, and music, into a 3D wall. In this way, you'll have a mosaic whereby you can easily view your stored content without having to dig through folders. This feature makes posting photos on Facebook, Flickr, Picasa, or other websites much easier.
Beyond this software, you'll also receive Hitachi's Backup software. It allows you to backup your files locally on the external hard drive. With it, you'll also have the option to backup your files online and view your secured content from any computer or smartphone, using an Internet browser. You can also share access to your files via a weblink and purchase iPad and iPhone apps for accessing these files.
