Portable hard drives......

[Stewrt]

Hey all,

My girlfriend is an art student and needs a portable hard drive for a few of her digital classes.
Would like it to be at least 40 gig.
Must be able to take a beating, I can see her tossing this thing around in her purse.
Preferably with Firewire and usb2.0
Must be able to operate from the usb or firewire so no external power required basically.

Anybody seen anything like this around?
Can ya recogmend one?

Thanks in advance for the input.

there are a few manufacturers out there that do offer this type of device. Find a portable 2.5" hard drive enclosure.

both of these guys have the self powereed external hard drives
