Asus unveils 1.8-inch 30GB portable USB hard drive

External storage options are fairly standard these days, after all, there are numerous available options to choose from. Well, thanks to Asus we now have one more option to consider when looking for a USB hard drive. Their latest comes in the form of an Eee branded USB hard drive. The drive come packing a slightly smaller 30GB of storage space with a USB connection cable attached and mounted on the back, but more interestingly is that it is in the form of a 1.8 inch drive. So while it may only contain 30GB of storage space, at least it is doing so with a small overall size. The other perk is the price — roughly $31. Of course, that price is based somewhat on the current exchange rate, and that means as of now we have not heard anything in terms of a US release date.
