Product: Usb portable storage
I’d like to thank Julie of UsbDrive for providing us with the UsbDrive Pro for review.
With the number of Portable USB key drives available on the market, it's not enough to just hold megabytes of information.
Manufacturers are now including applications and other handy tools with their products. USBDrive is One Company that offers more bang for your buck with its USBDrive Pro.
The USBDrive Pro comes with:
-Mini-cd, with product info.
-USB extension cable, great for those of us with our USB ports awkwardly located in the back of the case.
-Key ring, for convenient carrying.
-Neck strap, another option for carrying the unit around. It features a quick release clip so you can remove it from the strap.
Built-in Applications:
Protection - USB-Lock:
Robust security lock protects your computer.
Remove the USBDrive to restrict unauthorized access. Simply Lock 'n' Go.
Set lock down time to your specific needs.
Security - USB-SecureZip:
Increase USBDrive capacity: Simply drag and drop to compress and decompress.
Files are automatically encrypted and password protected.
Restrict access of files to USBDrive with allocated password.
Mobility - USB-Mail:
Access your personal or business email, anywhere, anytime.
POP3/SMTP email client:
Unlimited number of email accounts.
Email with full privacy - all communications recorded only on the USBDrive Professional™.
Reliability - USB-Backup:
Enables the user to backup files either from or to the USBDrive after every computer use. Simply designate which files must be backed up and they will be saved to the USBDrive or computer location.
One of my favorite built in applications is the email client. The software is easy to setup, and the program imported all my email accounts without any fuss. You have the option of leaving the email on your mail server (so you can later download it on your PC) or downloading it directly to the USBDrive. You can send mail just like any other email software too.
The USB-Lock is a great way to protect your PC while you’re away from it. No one can access your PC without first plugging in the USBDrive Pro and then type in the correct password. Since in all likely hood you will have the USBDrive Pro on you, its a fairly secure method. You can choose how long you want to lock down your computer from the drop down menu. I like the fact that you don’t have the option of locking it indefinitely, just in the off chance that you lose the unit.
As you can see the USBDrive Pro is jam packed with extra features and it should suit your portable storage needs nicely.
Pros:
- No Drivers Required
- Built-in Applications
- USB Extension cord
- KeyRing and Neck Strap
