Most 2.5″ external enclosures are small.
Some are larger than others, mine is quite large
Most are around the same size.
I guess, but some have extra features that makes them larger
True, smaller than 3.5″ at least

Software is useless! To resync the Drive it overwrites the whole lot everytime, instead of only updating those files that have changed.
If you have 3GB on the Drive, it takes 10 minutes to resync(whole rewrite). Imagine having 200 GB on it and it will take 11 hours!!! Unacceptable. Better use a Third Party Software. However a Third Party software needs to be installed on the computer and the OneTouch Backup feature of StoreJet will become obsolete as it only works with its own software.
