In particular the MassMicro 45Mb removable drive. I'm visiting from Australia and want to take advantage of the U.S.'s cheap prices, the 45Mb removable seems kind of attractive for normal hard disk use and fast back up. Has anyone had any experience with these drives, or know of their reliability record? Do you think they are worth the price? I apologize if this has been discussed before. I am in need of a speedy-ish reply as I'm returning quite soon. Much thanks in advance.
