3 out of 5 stars A MEDIUM size Hard Disk Case   September 14, 2008
The western digital size passport/mybook drives are too small for this case, however they can be held within due to the elastic strp holding it snug. The case opens up in two one side for the drive and the other for cables or other stuff you'd like to keep. I prefer to keep the included cable with the passport drive which also helps to stop the small drive moving around. On the other side I keep a longer double headed lindy cable (used for older machines where one usb slot is not enough power, so two slots are required) this stops the drive moving the vertically and not put a strain on the strap.

The outer material is a tough protective shell which has a woven feel, to enusre you can keep a grip. Though I would have expected interally for it to be lined with a softer material like high density foam to absorb any knocks, but this was not the case.

At the moment I don't see an alternative product, I'm quite suprised that Case Logic (who make some of the best cases around) haven't got round to improving the product.

Recently bought this case for my Trekstor pocket g.u. Provides good protection for the hard drive when travelling, if just a little oversize for the pocket drive.


5 out of 5 stars Great for Iomega Ego External Hard Drives   June 30, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Bought this on Amazon to protect my Iomega Ego external hard drive, it fits perfectly - like a glove....great wee case (and drive).....5 stars as it does what it says on the tin! The other people who mark it down because its too big or too small should have looked at the dimensions before buying, is this not the sensible thing to do? I cannot fault this case.


5 out of 5 stars I was slightly worried by the other reviews....   June 19, 2008

....but I have to say I am delighted with these cases, I bought two to protect an old 2.5 inch drive and my new western digital 250 gb pasport drive.

The pouch might be slightly bigger than required but there is a band to hold the drive in place and room for a USB cabel on the other side.

The case is well made, solid and certainly feels as if it will offer excellent protection to my nice new external hard drive.

I am delighted with it.



3 out of 5 stars A bit too big for slim portable HDs   May 25, 2008
 12 out of 13 found this review helpful

It looks nice etc., but this pouch is for "slim" hard drives (HDs) from the past. This is not something you can put in your pocket, as it is too big. There is a pocket inside for a USB cord, but it is also too big. One can put two or three cords in there. Since I myself have a slim HD from Western Digital (WD), I would call it - a pouch for two portable HDs from WD. Besides, HD is NOT held securely, as the pocket is too big for my WD, so HD can wobble in 2 dimensions if a force is applied. There is a stretchable band inside that is supposed to hold HD at the top, but it just only toching it rather preventing HD from falling out than holding it tight. I ended up putting more things in the pouch to use a space inside efficiently and hold the hard drive more tight. It is also tricky to connect HD while it is in the pouch, so you have to take it out. Not the most advanced and handy construction. I understand that one can not make something absolutely universal, for all portable HDs. But if you want something handy, small and secure just for your slim HD from Western Digital, this pouch is not perfect al all. It is just to carry HD + USB cord + accessories in the same place in your backpack.
