Still mourning over the loss of the HD format war, Toshiba thought that designing some cool, hip and happy new things would get it back on track and this is most likely the story behind the company's latest external hard drives. The three new drives all a have sleek and glossy finish, an anti-slip underside and a USB 2.0 interface.

Loaded with Plug & Play capabilities, Toshiba's portable spinners weight just 155 grams, measure 16,5 (H) x 81,3 (W) x 127 (D) mm and boast 8MB of buffer memory. Coming in 160, 250 and 320GB capacities, the external drives are colored in Gecko Green, Hot Rod Red and Carbon Grey respectively.

Unfortunately, Toshiba's remained mum when asked about the drives' price tags and release dates.
