Instead of a plastic shell, the Helios 101 uses an aluminium body with a matt surface designed to resist scratches and fingerprints. It keeps its fresh green look in a pocket, bag or pencil case, and the cap protects the USB Type-A connector when the drive is not in use.
A built-in chain hook lets you attach the drive to a keyring, lanyard or bag strap, so it is always on hand when you need to print a document, hand over photos or move files between computers. Keeping it attached also makes a small drive much harder to lose.
The drive is USB-powered and needs no external power supply. No driver is required except on Windows 98/98SE, where it must be downloaded from the official website. Supported systems include Windows 7, Vista, XP and 2000, Mac OS X 10.3 and above, and Linux 2.6 and above. Free SP Widget software adds extra management functions.
Students carrying assignments, office workers moving documents between computers, anyone who needs a spare stick for printing at a copy shop, and people working with older PCs that only have USB 2.0 or 1.1 ports.
