Buffalo Technology has announced the availability of its first portable silicon disk with SSD technology in the Middle East. The USB attached MicroStation (SHD-UHRXXGS) is capable of storing up to 100GB of data and offers the latest in storage technology within a compact (57 x 14 x 89mm) and lightweight (56-60g) chassis.

The MicroStation has no motors or moving parts which, combined with its portability and lightweight, shock-resistant chassis, minimises the risk of damage to data and provides protection against drops or shocks.
