A-Data Mini Cube
A-Data has recently released the 12GB Mini Cube, the first micro USB drive from the company and one of the smallest available at less than two inches long. Its hallmark is a one-touch backup function rare in its size class: Windows users can press a side button to automatically synchronize the drive with their PC, and also have the choice of scheduling regular backups that occur as long as the drive is plugged in.
Mac and Windows users alike can take advantage of the unique USB connector, according to A-Data. The port swivels a full 180 degrees, either concealing itself completely within the case or stopping at any position outside. The design helps the Mini Cube plug into a computer even in tight spaces. Online retailer Nothing But Software carries the drive today for $125. [Courtesy of Chip Chick]
