CHATSWORTH, CALIFORNIA (July 01, 2002) Pocketec(TM), the leading provider of portable storage solutions, introduces the Pockey-DataStor, USB 2.0 hard drive. With massive storage capacities, fast transfer rates, and ultra-portability, the pocket-sized DataStor is the most exciting removable storage product available today! Pocketec squeezed the power of a computer's internal hard drive into a small, sleek enclosure that measures just 5 in x 3 in x _ in. The Pockey-DataStor offers 20GB, 30GB, and 40GB capacities and literally dozens of drives can be liked together via USB hubs to create a nearly limitless library of files.

The Pockey-DataStor gives you the freedom and flexibility to take all of your files with you wherever you go", said Robert Jung, President of Pocketec(TM). "Basically, the DataStor liberated me from my laptop. Instead of carrying around my computer and all my accessories in a 15-pound bag, I just take my 5-ounce DataStor with me everywhere, " says Jung.
You never have to worry about running out of battery power or lugging around a cumbersome AC adapter because the Pockey-DataStor draws it's power right through the USB cable.
