Story Station – The New Samsung’s External USB HDD

Story Station, and it’s the name of New Samsung’s 1.5 TB External USB 2.0 hard disk drive with Capacity ranging from 500GB up to 1.5TB

It’s no coincidence that Samsung named its external USB hard disk “Story” as it attempts to woo consumers away from Western Digital’s My Book series of backup devices. The brushed aluminum slab with “passionate red lines” (groan) plays host to your choice of 500GB, 1TB, or 1.5TB 3.5-inch disks.

The Story Station can backup your data in “real-time” or be setup to backup on a set schedule of your choosing. Data is secured via password with an optional SecretZone virtual drive setup for encrypting all your swine-flu conspiracy data. This device is single-port, USB 2.0 only so you’ll have to take your dreams of network attached storage, eSATA, or FireWire 800 elsewhere. Available in Europe first sometime in May for an undisclosed price.
