Mobile Launchpad also allows users to have complete access to personal files and data without loading the content on a guest system. For quick and immediate access, the drives can also be used in regular drag 'n' drop mode. The tremendous capacity of the Verbatim USB Store 'n' Go HD Drive, combined with Mobile Launchpad, gives users the convenience of having their mobile applications stored on the USB drive, ready to use wherever they go. Many applications specifically designed to enhance the portable experience are available for download online. Programs include mobile photo databases, ID/Password management tools, and applications which use the drive to log in from any computer and make Internet phone calls or have online chats.

"Whether it's for business, education or entertainment, people want to have their content and data with them without carrying their computer everywhere they go," said Ron Hanafin, Verbatim Product Marketing Manager.

Verbatim 4GB and 8GB Store 'n' Go HD Drives
A stand-out in both design innovation and durability, the Verbatim 4GB and 8GB Store 'n' Go HD Drives have a polymer enclosure to provide shock resistance to the hard disc inside. With gently rounded corners, the slender case fits comfortably in the hand. When moving between different locations, the Verbatim drive can be placed in its stylishly designed travel wallet and slipped into your pocket, purse, attache or backpack.

Using the attached USB 2.0 cable, the hot-pluggable Store 'n' Go HD Drives can be easily moved from computer to computer without having to shut down or reboot the system. The USB cable conveniently swings out to make it easy to connect to your personal or guest computer and tucks away for convenience when not in use. When connected to a computer the blue center area of the drive lights up, showing the drive is connected and powered, and blinks when information is being transferred between drive and computer.
Verbatim Mobile Storage solution
The USB drive's compact size makes it easy for students to carry research and class project files from school to home. Consumers can plug the device into a friend's or family member's computer and instantly share slideshows of family photos, vacation videos and personal MP3 music selections. Busy executives who are constantly on-the-go can use a Store 'n' Go USB HD Drive to keep the latest company presentations, customer and partner contact information, databases, spreadsheets and key business files with them at all times, without having to carry their notebook systems.
