OWC have created a portable SSD drive that allows you to safely transfer large files between locations without the worry that a portable harddrive being knocked about can bring.
The OWC SSD drives are part of the Mercury On-The-Go pro line series and connect up to your laptop or PC via a Firewire 400 or 800 port, or USB 2.0 and it can transfer files up to 100MBps in speed.
The Portable SSD drives come in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB capacities, so they are not as large as some hard drives are, but they have no moving parts allowing them to be put easily in a bag or pocket without the worry of damaging them.
The 64GB version of the portable drive costs $279.99, so yes, they are expensive at the moment although as with all memory products, they always drop in price as new milestones in capacity are reached.
