Apricorn has released a MicroKey USB 2.0 drive with even more capacity, this one holding 8GB. It stores all that data in a relatively small form factor of 3.4" x 2" x 0.5". Yes, there is a hard disk inside as opposed to more-durable flash memory, but Apricorn says it has built a tank around that disk, surrounding it with a hardened aluminum alloy casing that you can drop or sit on without worrying about your data going south.

The MicroKey has a swiveling USB plug that lets you fit it into tight spot, and if that doesn't work Apricorn includes an extension cord to fit the drive into even more-crowded USB port locations. It's $199, available now.
