Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive review

Although it lacks many of the advanced features you get with other NAS servers, the sleek and compact Home Media Network Hard Drive is the easiest-to-use device of its type that we've seen so far. Excellent performance and support for USB hard drives and printers add to its merits Read more

LaCie Brick Desktop Hard Drive (250GB) review

The LaCie Brick makes for a practical and inexpensive, uniquely designed desktop drive that should suit the needs of almost any consumer in the storage market. It's doesn't hang around with transfer speeds either, and if you throw on some blue and white Bricks, you've got yourself a storage Lego fortress to be reckoned with Read more

Seagate FreeAgent Xtreme review

Unless you consider three interface options to be especially intense, there's nothing particularly extreme about the Seagate FreeAgent Xtreme hard drive, but we still found plenty to like about this external drive -- particularly its simple and functional design, fast performance and value for money Read more

Seagate Replica review

Available in 250GB and 500GB versions, the Replica external USB hard drive is the very definition of bother-free back-up. It doesn't offer enough flexibility or storage capacity to satisfy everyone, but, for those of a non-technical bent who don't have a huge collection of data, it's well worth a look Read more

Buffalo DriveStation Duo review

The Buffalo DriveStation Duo is smarter than your average 500GB external hard drive -- it can be used as one big drive, two independent disks, or in a RAID array, which lets it perform automatic data backups of itself. Perfect for the paranoid data hoarder Read more

Hitachi SimpleTough review

The SimpleTough is the sturdiest ruggedised external hard drive we've tested so far, capable of withstanding drops of up to 3m and up to a tonne of pressure. It also has a built-in USB cable and software that lets you back up your data to Hitachi's servers. If you're clumsy, you should check it out Read more

Iomega StorCenter Wireless NAS 1TB review

Its various RAID-array options, backup software, printer and media servers, and speedy performance make the StorCenter Wireless NAS a great choice for home storage and backup. You are limited, however, to 1 terabyte of disk space -- perhaps not such a hardship Read more

LaCie d2 Quadra Hard Drive (500GB) review

A compact 500GB drive, LaCie's new d2 Quadra is designed for people who need high data-transfer speeds over an eSATA connection or FireWire 800. It's a speedy performer, but you pay a premium for the connectivity Read more

Iomega eGo Leather Portable Hard Drive review

The 250GB Iomega eGo Leather Portable Hard Drive is a worthwhile alternative to the plethora of more mundane-looking devices on the market. Although its read and write times aren't anything to shout about, it looks great and you can drop it repeatedly without worrying that it'll stop working Read more
