The external hard drive is a sophisticated response to the complexities of daily data transfer and the necessity to archive data. The Freecom Mobile Drive CLS takes the possibilities of this storage medium one step further, offering users a highly consistent approach for administering their data. The way this external hard drive interprets the principle of data filing is highly sophisticated. Inspired by cassettes and how they are labeled, users can label each hard drive to indicate their contents in the sense of “collect, label and store”. With its plain and compact design, the Freecom Mobile Drive CLS takes up little space and thus is unobtrusive and easy to arrange on a desk. The main advantage of this innovative data storage system is that it enables users to easily organise their data by sorting and filing them on multiple drives. The option to choose between eight different label colours makes it easy to label and categorise each drive according to content. Data, which is stored on different hard drives, can thus easily be organised into a clearly laid out overall unity. Furthermore, a three-port USB dock allows users to connect more than one CLS hard drive to their computer at once, enabling them to access their music, photo and movie drives all at the same time.
