## Description

When time is of the essence, this SanDisk ImageMateM-^Y External Drive for SmartMediaM-^Y gets the job done. Not only does it transfer SmartMediaM-^Y files more than 50 times faster than using a serial cable, but it's also simple to use. Just drag and drop and you're in business.

Review: Perfect for portable storage - Picked one of these up to take advantage of the 128 MB SM card I got for Christmas, and I love it. It's amazingly small. Fits in the palm of your hand so you can take it anywhere. Installation is a snap (download the latest drivers from Sandisk.com if you're on XP), and read/write speed is much faster than the Zip disk I was using before to sneakernet stuff between home and work. So far, the only gotcha I've encountered is the way you insert SM cards into it. Cards go in "face down" (gold contacts facing down) unlike other devices where SM cards are inserted with the gold contacts facing towards you.
