On CNET Labs' test bench, the 30GB LaCie Skwarim (the name, incidentally, is a play on that of its designer, Karim Rashid) performed up to par with transfer speeds. It took a little more than 21 minutes to write our 10GB test folder to its disks. The read tests took slightly longer than most drives we've tested--around 11minutes copying our 10GB folder back to the test machine. These are good scores for a very small and very portable external drive.
The LaCie Skwarim is a fun little drive with both style and portability. It should provide you with all the on-the-go storage you need.
