500GB Mercury On-The-Go Hard Drive

Portable hard drives aren’t poor cousins of their computer based brethren anymore, as Mercury has proven with its On-The-Go model which holds up to 500GB worth of data in a pretty interesting design. It supports USB 2.0, FireWire 400 and FireWire 800 connectivity, and is fully Firewire bus-powered which means you don’t have to worry about lugging an additional power adapter each time you bring this out from your home. Unfortunately, those relying on USB connectivity might require the separate power adapter instead. Would you drop 500GB in a transparent case?
