Above all else, the new eGo leather Drive gives users a fast, powerful tool for preserving and transporting files.

Beneath the beautiful leather exterior is a state-of-the-art USB-powered portable hard drive, bringing elegance and efficiency to the critical task of backing up laptop and desktop data. Since it is USB-powered, the 2.5-inch drive is simple to operate (no power supply to carry around), and it comes as a complete storage solution with a license for EMC® Retrospect® HD software for automatic backups, scheduled backups, or on-demand backups. With its 250GB of storage capacity, the new eGo leather Portable Hard Drive holds up to 1,000,000 photos, over 4,625 hours of music or 375 hours of video.
