My Passport Studio review

By James Galbraith, Macworld.com | Published: 10:00, 07 July 2008

The My Passport Studio is no speed demon, but does offer decent capacity and performance in an attractive, slim design. Though we prefer a standard FireWire 400 port and cable over the drive's mini FireWire 400 port and two-headed cable, the My Passport Studio is a fine choice for those looking for a stylish drive for file backup and portable storage. But given the disparity between FireWire and USB performance, the My Passport Studio will be better suited to those users with FireWire ports on their PCs. Most Sony computers, and all Apple Macs (with the exception of the Macbook Air) have FireWire connectivity.
