Saying you’re into saving the Earth is the best way to score pussy nowadays. After all, after Al Gore’s movie and the Prius, every company is looking for a way to market something as “green.” A company called Fabrik will be releasing what is being dubbed the world’s most eco-friendly external hard drive, as if you cared.
The SimpleTech [re]drive uses Turbo USB 2.0, which is supposedly hella fast, for reading and writing. The casing is made from bamboo and aluminum and 100-percent recycled materials. At $160 for 500GB, it’s not the worst deal in the world and it might get you laid.

Hi Vince,
Thanks for your post.
[re]drive is a play off of recycle, reuse, renew, rethink…we thought this was quite clever, but I guess we can’t please everyone.
Don’t forget to backup your data!
Have a good day.
