The Verbatim Store 'n' Go USB 3.0 External SSD has a relatively small storage space of 32GB. This is not an external hard drive for storing thousands of digital photos, movies and music.

Small size; USB 3.0 compatible; Very fast transfer files; Available in a range of capacities

More expensive than standard USB flash drives; Small size means it could easily get lost; 32GB capacity is relatively small

This simple little drive is available in six exotic shades, as well as sober black and silver models. Our sample was Eucalyptus Green, but in our view the tasteful metallic design looks great in any colour.

Verbatim's latest line of portable hard disks add a splash of colour to what is normally a quite generic looking product. Our review sample came in bright purple, but you also have a whole rainbow of colours to choose from, including orange, blue, pink, green, silver and black.

Verbatim has a huge reputation in portable storage. It still makes 3.5in floppy disks as well as CDs, DVDs, USB sticks and portable hard drives. The new Store'n'Go range ships with USB 3 support – something we hope Apple supports in the near future as well as Thunderbolt.

Just works

Needs USB 3 cable

Tweet Verbatim's Store ‘n' Go Portable Hard Drive might not be as stylish as the company's InSight 500 GB portable hard drive , but it is just as practical, offering users 320 GB of storage space for all their pictures, videos, MP3s and documents.

Really compact; backup and energy saving software included

No faster data transfer option than USB 2.0; only 320 GB of storage space

These things sure start out great. It is fast, nice capacity, and powered by the USB port. It runs quietly when it works. Unfortunately it quit working after 8 months. I use this external hard drive to back up my wife's work. It is a critical business device. It turned out to be a bad decision.

The Verbatim 500Gb Store n Go are small and very convenient because they are self powered. The cable is a bit short, but OK. Picked them because of the firewire 800 - at least twice as fast as USB 2.0 drives. Came formatted HFS Journeled - perfect for OS X. So far so good.

quiet; fast; Easy to Setup/Install; easy to use

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Easy To Setup; Easy To Use; Fast; High Capacity; Portable; Reliable

This was purchased for my brother-in-law for Christmas. Prior to receiving it, he had no clue what it was for. He has found it very easy to use and loves the amount of items he can store on it. He reports that it is the best present I have given him by far.

good stuff

compact; 2x faster than USB2.0 drives; 7 years limited warranty

Factory formatted FAT32 needs to be converted to NTFS to make it much faster
