The portable hard drive connects to your computer via USB 2.0 for fast data transfers and has a retractable USB cable for travel.

If you have never had a portable hard drive before they work in a similar way to the floppy disks of the past. You can connect a portable hard drive to your computers USB port, and then drag and drop files from your computer onto the drive or visa vera. While connected to your computer your portable drive is more or less just more space on your computer.
The draw of a portable hard drive is that the drive is not a physical part of your computer so it can be transported with you where ever you go. If you have several computers, or want to transfer files from work to home you can do so by copying the files onto your portable drive. Portable hard drives make it easy to transfer documents, photos, video, and more to other computers.
This particular hard drive is selling for a little more than a drive this size usually would, more than likely to compensate for the contribution to the Komen foundation. If you are interested in purchasing one the drive is available at Amazon.com
