Introduction
It’s always interesting to see how our perceptions of things change over time. Remember when you were a little kid, bicycling around the neighbourhood and thinking it was as big as the world, only to return years later and realize it was only a couple hundred feet across? Big becomes small, small becomes desirable, and at some point we realize that neither really matters, it was the memories that counted.
In a similar manner, portable storage used to be a little 4GB USB flash drive. Remember when 4GB capacity was massive? It could store an entire DVD on that little thing! Ah, how times have changed, and 4GB is nothing but a distant memory (no pun intended, honest). Now we want greater capacity but somethign still very portable. Yes, similar to our childhood, we still want our cake and to eat it too; we want tons of storage in a compact package.
And this brings us to today’s topic of discussion: the Transcend StoreJet 25A3 portable USB 3.0 drive. Sporting a speedy interface to quickly move data, along with some management and encryption utilities, and a sleek form factor that can fit into your pocket, this 750GB StoreJet might be just the thing you need for big capacity on the go.
But what about performance? Let’s find out.
Wonderful storage system.
