This colorful storage device comes in 4 capacities according to your flavour. 250GB, 320GB, 500GB, and 640GB choices will be on the shelves soon. There are so many brands incorporating external storage solutions, but this one knows how not to get lost in the tech jungle by being different. Well, it says in the PR material that you only have 30 minutes if you drop it in water or pool (hey watch out, it must be at most 1meters deep). SRP is yet not known.
