Verbatim SureFire USB/FireWire 800 external HDD targets MacBook Pro
Verbatim on Wednesday announced its line of SureFire portable “combo” hard disk drives that connect with either USB 2.0 or FireWire 800 interfaces — perfect for one of those new Apple MacBook Pro laptops.
Available in 250GB, 320GB and 500GB capacities, the bus-powered drives are clad in black aluminum with a fingerprint-resistant matte finish. Inside you’ll find a 2.5-inch, 5400 RPM HDD, naturally. In all, the drive weighs 0.41 lbs.
The drive comes with a black protective carrying case and both USB and FireWire cables, and retail for the following: 250GB for $110; 320GB for $140; 500GB for $180.
