We at CDFreaks would like to present a review of the Media HardDrive from INOi, the MH720. The new MH720 not only stores data with its 3.5” SATA HDD but supports high definition video output (up-scaling to 720P) for better picture quality. The drive also supports digital sound quality. The drive will also support computer hot swap and high speed data transfer with its USB 2.0 interface.
