I got this a year ago & I use it 4 backups of my laptop & transferring files. It fits just about anywhere. Now that drives of similar size, but greater capacity are becoming more affordable, I may use this as dedicated storage on my desktop at home, but it has been reliable & worked with any PC I have connected it to. The data transfer rate is OK. I do keep it in a TSA-sized zip-lock with its cable 2 give it a little protection from dust & moisture. You could describe it as being nearly passport-sized (just a little thicker).

Rating: 2 of 5 wrong decision
I bought this HD because of the speed of transfer & it's reputation.
i had 2 send it back 2 Ca. because the vendor,when called, did not want 2 deal with it.
i got the new one & now that one does not work either. both drives were corrupt.
Simple Tech will give me a RMA 4 another one but i think that 2 try 4 a third one is not a good idea.
I have contacted the vendor & am awaiting word on what will happen. i hope that i will not be stuck with a bum HD

The SimpleTech120GBUSB2.05400RPMPortableHardDrive worked right out of the box. Just plug into USB & copy files & no need 4 a power cord.
Its sleek lines & ultra-low profile styling makes you want 2 put it on a shelf & stare, but it easily slides into your pocket 4 ultimate portability.The new SimpleDriveportable has style plus. The stylish lines of the SimpleDrive come from the designers at Pininfarina, the very same design firm that gave the Ferrari sports car its stylish lines.
