I love plenty of storage. The last time I saw a Terabyte storage was last year when I had the chance to review the heavy Maxtor Solutions OneTouch III Turbo (goes in 1 TB or 1.5 TB versions).
Now Philips has up the ante with the nice looking SPD5130 hard drive, equipped with one terabyte of storage and able to connect to a computer using either USB 2.0 or the new eSATA interface. If you have plenty of media files like me, you will appreciate the eSATA interface that goes around six times faster than USB 2.0. No more wasting time and more time to catch a movie date. Goes for £299.99 over in the UK.
The drive will start and shut down with the computer it’s attached to. It has a one-click backup button to safeguard data, and a safe shutdown button to help prevent data loss.
Fantastic!! and not expensive
