What is a ?
HANDY Q is the name of a new high-performance external hard drive
by Samsung. It supports both the high-speed IEEE 1394 interface and
the high-speed USB 2.0 interface. Unlike the existing desktop hard
drives, HANDY Q gives your system large storage space instantly
without the need to open up the computer.
With the formatting and partitioning already done, you can use the
large storage space instantly upon connecting Samsung HANDY Q to
the USB or 1394 port on your computer without rebooting the system.
HANDY Q supports both USB 1.1 and 2.0. The USB 2.0 connection
is up to 40 times faster compared to the USB 1.1 connection.
HANDY Q automatically detects the connected port. When the drive
is connected through the USB port, data is transferred in USB mode,
and when connected through the 1394 port, it is transferred in
1394 mode.
