LG XF1 – a Device That’s a Whole Lot More Than Just Back Up

By mydz on Jul 26, 2009 No Comments

There are a lot of external hard drives out there and it’s really hard to pick one. So again, we’re here to help you decide which external hard drive suits you best.

What we have here is LG’s first mobile multimedia hard drive – XF1. LG XF1 is a cool gadget with a USB interface that won’t look out of place if the future still has room for hard drives. Why? Well, because it’s a device that’s a whole lot more than just back up. Exquisite design, portability, stability, and high speeds are offered by XF1.

lg-xf1-multimedia-hard-driveHaving a thickness of just 20.8mm, the XF1 comes in an attractive mirror finish with smooth curves. Internally, it has a 500GB of storage space together with HDMI output that allows you to stream HD content straight to your television set but it won’t support full HD as it maxes out at 1080i. It will do AVI, Xvid, and MPEGs 1, 2, and 4, and it comes packed with a codec decoder that reads FAT32 and NTFS exclusively. It also features on-board touch-sensitive controls for navigation when you forget to bring along a remote.

I must admit, it’s a damn pleasing external hard drive but, it misses out a few features [it lacks H.264, WMV, and MKV support] which could have turned it into a hot gadget.

Here, you can also find a selection of portable external hard drives from LG.
