We just received the ToughTech FS Mini from WiebTech and are very impressed. It is indeed an amazing tech product and a gadget you should consider for the tech lovers this holiday season.

When was the last time you held 320GB or 500GB all in the palm of your hand enclosed in a sleek and slim solid aluminum sturdy case ready to be accessed for any file you need, anytime? Probably never right? Now you can with this ToughTech FS Mini. It’s ultra portable and about the size of a pack of playing cards, ToughTech mini will easily travel with you fitting in shirt pocket or briefcase. You don’t even need to use an AC adapter when connecting to a powered FireWire host.

This device simply put is a pocket drive for fast 2.5” SATA drives with connections to your computer via FireWire 400 or USB. This is probably one of the most practical & helpful tech gadgets around. Now you can easily store, backup, and bring with you all your precious data, music, video, and other digital assets in an ultra portable fashion. Think about this, with 500GB in the palm of your hand you can have instant access to approx 250,000+ songs, 500,000+ photos, and a million+ docs.

We are also impressed with the solid, strong, and rugged aluminum case that really helps the ‘ToughTech’ brand live up to its name. The gadget is indeed tough and gives you the impression that your drive with all your important data is protected and safe. One innovative way this gadget ensures your data is secure is via the ToughMount™ Anti-Shock Protection feature. In essence, ToughMount strips are mounted between the drive and the enclosure protecting your data against shock and reducing enclosure noise.

This device also runs cool and quiet as the aluminum design draws heat away from the hard drive helping to keep your drive cool. And because it doesn’t need a fan, The ToughTech FS Mini is quiet.

In terms of specs, The ToughTech FS Mini provides you the attractive aluminum case with a triple interface: Two FireWire 400 ports, one USB 2/eSATA combo port and accepts 2.5″ SATA drives. Here is what you get in the package:

• ToughTech FS mini enclosure

Plus you get a really nice leatherette case emblazoned with the WiebeTech logo in which is perfect for storing and protecting your device. The MSRP is approx $80 without a drive, $170 for the 320GB and $215 for the 500GB version.

Overall if you need a lot of storage in a very portable fashion to support your on the go needs then this device can be your perfect solution. The ToughTech FS Mini from WiebeTech is an amazing tech product worth checking out and a perfect stocking stuffer!
