Hyperdrive - buy a shell and fit a hard drive of your choice. I take
two of them for backups when I am on safari in the boondocks, and they
have worked flawlessly the last 7-8 years I have been using the
product, in all sorts of environments. Fantastic customer service, as
well, the only time I had a problem, and that too into India.Highly
recommended.:
