A-Data Releases Colorful External Notebook Storage
A-Data's newest external hard drives employ you to "enjoy technology with a touch of style." And by that, A-Data means you should decide between rolling with sweet pink, sapphire blue, purple, or a white color scheme for your portable storage needs.
The color selection comes courtesy of A-Data's CH91 external HDD line. Coated in a metal-like paint spray, the new drives are available in capacities up to 500GB (250GB and 320GB also available) and support Microsoft's ReadyBoost technology. The USB powered drives measure 134mm x 82mm x 16.7mm, feature a blinking LED to indicate power and activity, and comes with a USB Y cable, suede pouch, and backup software.
No word yet on price or availability.

You know at first I was thinking these things are dumb but then I realized that with all the jumbling around a notebook drive can die very quickly and without warning. A complete backup image of the HDD built into your netbook/notebook would be very important as well as leaving room for software downloads and backups of music and movies that you really don't want on your limited capacity HDD in your laptop but readily accessible from an externel drive. I have an awesome desktop with 2Tb of storage capacity and yet I still use two external USB drives for backup of important files.
