Seems kind of expensive since I can get a USB 2.0 or E-SATA drive with 1 TB of storage for 100-150 Canadian dollars. The shape of the drive reminds me of the Xbox 360 elite with a glossy black piano finish. It looks good, but I bet it will be cover in greasy fingerprints easily if it is not wiped regularly.
