Environment-friendly hard drive from Kanguru

Kanguru has brought out an eco-friendly hard drive which saves power by shutting off during times of inactivity.

With so many devices of every conceivable function invading our households, power bills are shooting up. So is the concern over environmental costs of electricity. Computers, being traditionally big power wasters, have been under the microscope recently.

So, anything saves power merits attention. And here we feature the eco-friendly hard-drive from Kanguru. The USB 2.0 drive comes in sizes up to 750 GB, and is compatible with Windows 98 and above and OS X. But above all, what’s impressive about the product is Kanguru’s claim that it reduces power consumption by up to 75% by shutting down during periods of inactivity.
