Plextor Creates Portable Hard Drives With Extra ‘Protection’

With the heightened danger of living nowadays, everyone needs protection (no, not that kind of ‘protection’). It’s quite natural to see politicians wearing bullet-proof vests even when they go fishing; teenstars crashing their cars to avoid paparazzi (duih?!); and hard disk drives getting wrapped with specially designed silicon jacket bumper to protect it from unwanted crashes. No, I’m not joking.

Plextor Corp., manufacturer of high-performance digital media equipment, has come up with a portable and shock-proof external hard disk drives for users that are constantly on the go (and troubled by a destructive personality). The product line, dubbed as PX-SP, weighs a mere 8 ounces enabling the computer user with Logan-like tendencies to carry his data without worrying about it getting destroyed whenever he makes a berzerker barrage. It comes in two capacities, 80 GB (PX-SP08U) and 120 GB (PX-SP12U), both compatible with Microsoft(R) Windows(R) and Apple(R) Macintosh(R) personal computers; it also packs a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port interface paving the way for maximum data transmission speed of 480 Mbps.

Aside for having a penchant for violence, the PX-SP twins also require a personal computer running Windows 2000/XP(TM) or Mac OS 9.1 – 9.2.2 / Mac OS X 10.1 – 10.4.4, with minimum Celeron 466-MHz processor and 64 MB RAM. Set to be available in North and South America in May 2006, anger management dropouts should expect to shell out $169 for PX-SP08U (80 GB capacity) or $260 for PX-SP12U (120 GB capacity). All orders are guaranteed labor warranty and unlimited toll-free technical support (poor customer care agents, expect a lot of cussing coming your way).
