Iomega’s new eGo drive is light and portable; in fact it’s just slightly larger than an iPhone. While the unit is sleek, it still has its design quirks. The activity light is at the rear of the drive next to the ports, it’s bright so you’ll know it’s o...

Iomega got its name dragged through the muck for producing some poor products, the worst being the Zip 100 back in the 1990s and the ScreenPlay in 2006. Over the past few years, Iomega products have improved, and the eGo Portable Hard Drive Mac Edit...
Good Compact, pocketable size. High-capacity drive. Good drop rating. Comes with all necessary cables. Compatible with Mac OS 10.1—10.5+. Speedy transfers.
Bad Requires Internet connection to download software. Case is a fingerprint magnet. Drive light is a little too bright.
Bottom line The Iomega eGo Mac Edition gives Apple users a triple interface drive for all the files that dont fit on their internal drives. Compatibility back to Mac OS 10.1 is a plus...
