Revving Up Iomega REV 70GB USB Drive

Many computer users that have large amounts of data to back up will be glad to heart that Iomega has a new and higher capacity REV drive with 70GB of storage capacity per tape. REV USB drives have quickly become a faster and more durable method of backing up large quantities of data for enterprise and heavy consumer users.

Iomega's 70GB REV drive. You can encrypt and password protect data on REV drives for greater protection of your information. In compressed format, the new drive can hold 140GB of data. One of the best features of REV drives over tape is that the REV is non-linear. You can easily drag and drop files onto the REV disk. Iomega also claims that the REV is eight times faster than a tape backup. I have used REV drives in enterprise settings, and that speed improvement is no exaggeration.
