The palette of available colours suits every personal taste – no matter whether professional colours like black or silver are preferred or flashy colours like yellow, pink and green are in favour. Only 127mm x 82mm x 20mm in size Verbatim’s superfast USB 3.0 Portable Store ‘n’ Go Hard Disk Drive is very handy – making it easy to store and carry the digital and day-to-day working files around. Its stylish smooth design sits neatly on the modern desktop as the perfect accompaniment to your laptop. Due to the new USB 3.0 technology the portable hard drive has a transfer rate of up to 4.8 Gbit per second, offering a fast solution to transfer even large files in a short space of time. The drive comes with a single-cable solution that provides both data and power connection eliminating the need for a separate power supply. As usual, it also has a 24 month guarantee.

Software for Back-ups, Burning and Energy Saving
Included on the Portable USB3.0 Hard Drives are two software packages. The first package, Nero BackItUp and Burn Essentials, combines three important functions in just one piece of software: as well as regularly backing-up all files and folders users can also burn photos, videos or other data content onto CD, DVD or Blu-ray Disc, and recover damaged files with Nero RescueAgent.
The second package, the GREEN BUTTON software, reduces energy consumption and extends the drive’s life expectancy by automatically placing the Verbatim Store `n` Go into sleep mode after a programmed period of time or by the user manually clicking on the GREEN BUTTON on the desktop.
