LaCie introduces a pocket CD-RW drive. It writes at 8 speed (a full cd in ten minutes), and reads at 32 speed.
 Building on the rapid success of its 10-30GB PocketDrives(TM) with mobile professionals, LaCie announced today the 8x4x32x LaCie PocketCD-RW, a 6`` x 6'' CD-RW that fits in the palm of your hand. Offering twice the write speed of the original PocketDrive CD-RW, LaCie's new compact CD-RW is the first to include both USB and FireWire® (IEEE 1394) connectors, LaCie's unique U&I(TM) dual-access system. |
The LaCie PocketCD-RW can be used with USB and FireWire-equipped computers. The FireWire and USB buses make the drive hot-pluggable -- it can be attached to a computer or even moved from computer to computer without having to shutdown or reboot the system. The LaCie PocketCD-RW automatically detects the system interface and configures the connection, so the drives mount as soon as they are connected.
This is nice!! A great combination of features: mobility, convenience and universal connectivity! The price? $399.
