Toshiba Europe Has Launched Three New External Drives - Gecko Green, Hot Rod Red and Carbon Grey

      Toshiba Europe Storage Device Division, the world leader in high performance hard disk drive (HDD) technology, has launched three new external and fully portable HDDs. The new drives will meet the performance requirements of today’s technology-savvy and style-conscious consumers. The new hard disk drives are highly ergonomic, sleek and ruggedised to withstand the demands of being constantly in transit. The products feature a 2.5 inch drive and fit into the palm of the hand. The new drives are compatible with both PCs and Macs, they are ideal for anyone needing to store and carry information and entertainment files. They are ideal for users with large volumes of video, picture and audio files that want to use that data wherever they are, whether that be with friends and family, when entertaining or for professional uses.



As well as offering extremely straightforward operation with plug and play functionality, the three new drives have an internal shock sensor that safeguards them from everyday wear and tear while in transit, whether that be in a pocket, a casual bag or slipped inside a briefcase. They also feature a rubberised underside to ensure that they remain safely in place on top of a desk or other flat surface, but can easily be removed.

The three new Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 Portable External HDDs are:
Gecko Green: a 160 Gigabytes (GB) drive design for carrying large data volumes while on the move and serving as a high performance external desktop HDD

Hot Rod Red: a 250GB drive building on the performance of the GeckoGreen and ideal for users that have a fast-growing library of audio, video and picture files that they need to access regularly

Carbon Grey: a 320GB top-end drive capable of storing huge volumes of user data
