Posted on: Monday, 26 June 2006, 12:00 CDT

SmartDisk Corporation announced today that it has begun shipping its new FireLite XPress portable, palm-sized hard drive with cholesteric liquid crystal display (LCD). The drive, available in 60GB and 120GB versions, is now available at major reseller websites, as well as at www.smartdisk.com. Soon FireLite XPress will be available in major consumer electronic retail stores.

FireLite XPress features an always-on LCD that is readable without power, identifies the drive by a user-designated name, indicates the last date that information was recorded, provides a table of contents for the drive and displays drive capacity and available space.

SmartDisk FireLite drives are designed for users who require convenient, portable storage to backup critical data, transport and synchronize data between multiple computers, and want to free up valuable hard disk space on existing computers. FireLite drives are ideal for transferring large files between home and office, for storing hours of superior quality video or warehousing huge graphics files. Featuring sleek, metal casings for durability, FireLite drives are palm-sized and weigh about six ounces. All FireLite drives are "mass storage class" peripherals, requiring no driver installation when used with operating systems like Mac OS X, Mac OS 9, Windows XP and Windows Me. All FireLite drives, including the new XPress, feature BounceBack Express backup software.
