Reviews of the Transcend StoreJet 25 Mobile (500GB, red)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Triple-layered chassis protection; cheap; quick transfer speeds; convenient one-touch backup; two-year warranty.
The Bad: No FireWire port.
The Bottom Line: The Transcend StoreJet 25 Mobile stomps the competition and lives to fight another day, thanks to its rugged military-grade exterior. It also delivers chart topping transfer speeds and offers the cheapest cost per gigabyte on the market today. We fully recommend this tough little drive.
