Just as the 250 GB SimpleDrive model, this 500 GB version comes wrapped in a tapered case that is styled by designer Pininfarina. It weighs 2 pounds and its measurements are 8.2 X 5.1 X 1.5 inches. We are dealing with a drive that is aimed at changing between systems and not taking on a trip with you. The 500GB SimpleDrive portable hard drive manufactured by SimpleTech is not as portable as a Maxtor OneTouch 4 mini or as big as a 750 GB FreeAgent Pro by Seagate. On the other hand one factor that is highly important and is good stands in the listed price ($169.99) and this provides a great price per gigabyte factor.

We see a very useful one click backup button on the top of the drive that features the SimpleTech logo and is surrounded by a capacity meter that is very useful as it lets you know how much free space you have. When less than 10 percent of storage capacity is free you will also see it flashing, which basically means you should think about freeing some space. The 3.5 inch hard drive spins at 7,200 RPM and comes with 8 MB of cache buffer while Read more »

It was introduced in the fall of 2006 but it is still one of the most popular laptops today. The Apple 13-inch MacBook laptop appeared as a revolutionary product that combined the company’s own operating system with Intel Core 2 Duo CPUs. We must also add different Apple extras like iLive software, MagSafe, Front Row remote and the iSight camera. We can consider this gadget to be one of the most loved laptops currently available on the market. To make it all even better, ever since the launch Apple continued to issue various hardware upgrades that added to CPU power and kept price acceptable. The newest updated appeared in November 2007 and it upgraded the CPU to a beautiful 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo while also adding the Santa Rosa platform and improved integrated graphics. The result was a small boost in performance but the tip of the cake is not the hardware update. You are most likely to be interested in the new Leopard version of the OS X operating system. It does come installed with new MacBooks and it adds different new features that are quite useful, thus keeping the Apple 13 Inch MacBook a top recommendation although people do want to have a new laptop to play with.
