Fujitsu has fired the latest shot in the long running portable hard disk drive storage wars releasing a 300GB portable hard drive.
The drive, which is 50GB larger than its nearest competitor retains the standard 2.5-inch dimensions and features a SATA connection for internal use as well as a USB 2.0 connector for use as an external drive.
It also features a 16-point omnidirectional shock mounting design to protect the HDD against any unforeseen circumstances where it may otherwise be damaged from excessive motion.

As a result of our focus and commitment to R&D, we have been able to leverage our expertise in this field to create an ideal solution for portable backup and storage solutions."
