Mini external USB hard drive

Hi,

I'd like to buy a mini usb hard drive to take around campus with me (20-60gigs?). I was wondering if anyone could make some reccomendations. I'd like it to be sturdy and thin (you know, something I can stick in my pocket if I have to), and powered by the usb power (a seperate adapter is no good).

Thanks for your help,
Chris

Heh, I meant a disk drive, not solid state memory.


Anyone??

I think you would need an external HDD. Probably will be serial port though. Not sure what you are trying to accomplish but it probably would be slower than and internal HDD.

I'd not ignore the capabilities of the micro drives, they might do what you want.
