240GB 1.8-inch hard drives have been out and about for a little while now, but they're still a bit of a rare sight in actual products, which is something the folks at Apricorn look set to rectify with their new Aegis Mini portable hard drive. As you can see above, the whole package isn't much larger than the hard drive itself and, better still, it's available in your choice of USB 2.0 or FireWire flavors, which'll run you the expectedly premium price of $269 and $279, respectively. If that's a bit more than you need, you can also grab an 80GB or 120GB drive, which also pack the same shock protection and retractable cable as their more capacious counterpart, plus Apricorn's own Data Protection Suite software.

There's been a ton of news about HDD's lately...
However, this is pretty cool.

It never ceases to astound me how much storage space these companies are able to pack into such a small space.

Ehh...I'd rather stretch my pockets and pay a third for more.
Yeah 'cause people carry around harddrives in their pocket all the time.

I think they should market this towards netbook owners. It will fit right into a small netbook bag and would be great to download video and photos to during a vacation or something.

Can't it be both?

I doubt people would all the time, but if I had something like this, I probably would most the time.
