Retro Review: Smartdisk Fotochute 20 GB for your PSP



I'm calling this a retro review because the Fotochute has been around for a long time. I had been searching for a cheaper portable hard drive that would work with the PSP but didn't have much luck until I found the Fotochute. I love this little guy. 20 gigs of storage for homebrew, iso's, etc. and for under a hundred bucks. Transfer times from the hard drive to my PSP's memory stick are decent. The OLED screen is a little small which complicates things because you can't read the entire name of the file you are copying over. The Fotochute is a USB Host/OTG and therefore can read/display the contents of the internal hard drive and the PSP's memory stick. If you are looking for a large amount of portable storage for your homebrew without spending a bunch of money on memory sticks definitely give this a look. Here is a review from Macworld, may not be the best solution for Mac users. Thought this may be of interest to some of you. Hope it is helpful.
