Hitachi claims it's tough too, capable of shrugging off drops from 3m and even a sprinkling of water. We're not entirely convinced. Dropping it from above head height onto the office floor incurred nothing more than curious looks from colleagues, but w...

Design There's a saying in backup circles that there's really only two types of hard drive. Those that have failed, and those that have yet to fail. We've seen it attributed to many sources, but no matter the original author, it's still stunningly tru...
