I wonder how small this item is. This impression may be partly due to the fact that my most recent hard drive was a 2TB WD hard drive, which was non-portable, had to be plugged in, and was bulky. I used to have an 8GB stick. It's amazing how fast technology advances. I definitely can't speak to the very long term reliability of this product as I'll have to wait a year or two. In the short term, it seems fast, reliable, and cheap. The only drawback is the very short cable.
