Manufacturer's product description

FireLite from SmartDisk is a portable external hard drive that offers great looks, huge storage capacities and a trim design that makes it easy to carry and use either at your desk or on the go. One of the first things you'll notice about FireLite is its size. But while FireLite is small in size, it offers a big storehouse for your applications and data. With its terrific styling and versatility, FireLite is the perfect solution to all of your data storage needs. Forget copying documents to CDs to carry them between home and office: store them instead on portable FireLite and take the entire drive with you wherever you work. No more updating the "wrong" version of a document, no more "selecting and copying" new or changed content from one version of a file to another. FireLite safely stores important documents so you can work on them any time, anywhere. Whether you use a laptop, desktop or both, FireLite is the perfect way to add storage capacity to your computer. Its trim size means it doesn't take up much space on your desktop. If you're traveling with a laptop, just slip FireLite into your computer's carrying case. FireLite easily holds the applications and data you need. Its speedy performance rates mean you can work directly with your applications and data on the disk - no need to copy anything first to your internal hard drive. When you need to share huge files with customers, coworkers in other divisions or anyone not on your network, FireLite is the answer. Its small size, fast copy speed, ability to use data directly from the drive and large capacity make it ideal for transporting and sharing giant-sized files with others. Don't have a CD burner built into your system? Have one, but hate the thought of creating dozens of CDs to duplicate data that absolutely must not be lost? Back up your critical files to FireLite instead. FireLite offers great performance in copying large numbers of files from your local hard disk, is easily connected and disconnected through a single cable, and is convenient to use in your office or on the go. If your laptop fails while you're traveling, your data can still travel safely with you on your FireLite drive.

Firelite 80GB Ext HD REVIEW - A great buy
Review of SmartDisk FireLite Hard drive 80 GB by johnny12345

Advantages: small, fast, looks great, large storage capacity for size
Disadvantages: None

...The Firelite 80GB external harddrive incorporates large storage space and a small sized unit perfectly. Powered by USB/USB2 - with no requirement for a seperate power adapter, files can be effectively backed up quickly. Accessing files is also easy - a use the drive to store videos and music - it handles them both well. The device is no bigger than a hand and looks great. The neon blue light on the top indicates that the device is active. It is as simple as plug-n-play. There is no requirement to close/shutdown the device when finished - just unplug. Additional file storage space is useful - especially to laptop owners - laptops not generally having huge storage capacities. Backing files up is also effective when safeguarding important files - the firelite doing this quickly and simply. Overall a great buy.... Read review

Excellent additional external HDD
Review of Freecom Hard Drive Hard drive 400 GB by bazone8

Advantages: Additional capacity - worked out of the box
Disadvantages: None

...I totally agree with first reviewer. Worked out of the box. I partitioned the 400 GB into two drives using Partition Magic 8 (which had previously baulked at a 160 GB internal HDD) and am using one for storage of digital images (duplicates to CD/DVD backups). Mine, even after three hours use, did not get hot - rather a nice warm value. It works very quietly and I can fully recommend this make and model as exceptionally good and extremely good value for money. When I think back to the 40 MB disc I used for years (Drivespaced, too) I cannot but think what fantastic value for money this is. As a supplement to my internal 2 X 120 GB HDDs, it will provide an additional capacity for my growing storage of high quality digital images (I am now a retired PRO Photographer and teacher of, says he blushingly, high international reputation)...

Incredibly Capacious, but good Value
Review of Maxtor Hard drive 80 GB by iMacfan

Advantages: Fast Small and 80GB!
Disadvantages: Nothing really

...After getting myself into the whole iMovie and DV camcorder thang, I realised that the tiny hard drive (10 Gb) in my iBook was not enough (1 hour of DV footage takes up 13 Gb), so I started looking for alternatives. As Firewire is the only high speed connection on the laptop, I looked around. Most 30-40Gb Hard drives for Firewire (Also Sony i.Link) were £250, but I saw this one by Maxtor - 80 Gb for under £350. The Box is smaller than I thought, and Graphite and ice to match the iBook, but it does come with an ugly and propriety power supply. Very fast was my first reaction. It can stream DV footage without any dropped frames - and thats 5 Mbytes/s. So, unless you are doing pro DV or something really demanding there is no point in buying the 75Gb drives out there that cost over £700 - the extra little bit of speed is really... Read review
