New G-Technology hard drives are lightweight but tough
Mashable by Rex Santus
G-Technology announced on Tuesday that it's putting out a new batch of its rugged external hard drives.
Videographers and photographers are especially fond of G-Tech storage devices, and the latest ones are designed with them in mind. The idea is that they can tote the hard drives into physically strenuous environments like, say, a mountain during a snowstorm.
There are three new external hard drives, as well as two ?all-terrain? cases. There are data-transfer options available for both Thunderbolt connectors (used on most Mac computers) and USB 3.0.
The G-Drive ev RaW is an up-to-1TB hard drive that is lightweight and can fit in small compartments, like a backpack or purse. It?s about 35% lighter than original G-Drive Evolution, which launched in 2013, and comes with a USB 3.0 cable. It's specifically designed to be portable.
According to G-Technology, the ev RaW can withstand a 1.5-meter fall and is formatted to go with Mac computers, though it can be reconfigured for Windows. The device starts at $99.95 for a 500GB, or $129.95 for the 1TB version. It will be available in January. read more...
