The [re]Drive by SimpleTech (Hitachi) is made of 100% recycled aluminum & steam pressed bamboo. This drive doesn’t come with a noisy or power consuming fan, the aluminum acts as a heat sink that cools the drive.The drives user guide is printed inside the box & stored digitally on the drive. This has all been done in the effort to stay eco-friendly. The drives end caps are made of recycled newspaper, & it automatically powers on & off with your computer to save energy.
Th design plays a huge part both on the operation of the external drive & the manufacturers ideals, but its also stylish & sleek.
