Verbatim launch portable external hard drive for Apple MAC users

Verbatim has launched a portable external hard drive aimed at Apple MAC users. It allows freelancers like graphic designers, photographers and architects to transfer and store large files wherever they are.

The Verbatim Store 'n' Go Mac Portable Hard Drive is said to have a contemporary, minimalistic design in a black or white glossy finish. There are two versions: the one, a combination of FW800 and USB 3.0 SuperSpeed and HFS+ formatted, while a second version offers USB 3.0 SuperSpeed interface and FAT32 for PC users as well.

GREEN BUTTON software included

Both Verbatim Store 'n' Go Mac Portable Hard Drive versions offer storage capacities of 500GB and up to 1TB (available in Q1 2011). The USB 3.0 SuperSpeed delivers data transfer rates up to ten times faster than USB 2.0 (based on USB bus speeds). The pure Mac Version offers one FireWire 800 Port and one USB 3.0 Mini-B port. This combo unit is HFS+ formatted and fully compatible with Apple Time Machine Backup Software.

Included on both Verbatim Store 'n' Go Mac Portable Hard Drives is the GREEN BUTTON software which 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.
