I use a Freecom toughdrive to backup my work files every day, then sling it in my bag so I have an off-site backup of my most needed data in the event of a disaster. Of course I don't need 1TB for myself, but I am sure there are plenty who do.

Surely something like this is more appropraite for a 2.5" portable power over USB drive that people are likely to be carrying about with them? Give me a 500GB 2.5" drive in the same idea, (but not with the same markup), and you'd have a winner

Can't quite see the market myself for this, who hauls about these 3.5" external HD's with their power adapter and needs 'protection'? for £90 more?
