A Closer Look

The Intelligent Drive i810 comes on a small chain and loop so it can be hooked onto a cell phone, or attached to a lanyard if one so desires. It is made of all plastic with the exception of the electrical parts.


The chain is easily removed via a clip. When it comes to plugging the i810 into your computer, you push on the back of the unit and then slide the USB connector out. The whole connector is the actual flash memory, and shows how they got this unit so compact.


On the back side of the unit, you can see how the connector slides into the body. The body is purely a protective mechanism for the Intelligent Drive. The advantage of having a body with the connector sliding out of is that there is no end cap, and therefore no chance of loosing the cap.


To give a true perspective of just how small this unit is, it's shown here plugged into a standard 15.4" laptop and then laying on a DVD. The only thing that worries me about something this small, is it can be very easy to loose - At least when it comes to the likes of me.
