Toshiba launches Canvio Ready portable hard drive
Cherry XTRFY launches M42V2 ultralight gaming mouse
TOSHIBA Electronics Europe GmbH has introduced its updated Canvio Ready 2.5-inch portable hard disk drive, featuring a redesigned enclosure with ribbed detailing for improved grip and a top cover made from 65% recycled material. The refresh maintains the line’s plug-and-play operation and familiar ease of use. Available in capacities up to 4TB, the HDD offers straightforward storage for photos, documents and media libraries. It connects via a USB Type-A to Micro-B cable, supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 transfer speeds up to 5 Gbit/s, and remains backwards compatible with USB 2.0. The drive is USB-powered and comes pre-formatted for Microsoft Windows, with Mac support available following reformatting. Toshiba continues to emphasise reliability, with ramp load technology helping protect the drive mechanism during transport and integrated shock sensors guarding against excessive shock events.
The new Canvio Ready will be available in 1TB, 2TB and 4TB capacities from Q4.
CHERRY XTRFY has introduced the M42V2, a 45g modular gaming mouse designed to deliver competitive performance at an accessible price point. Announced at Gamescom, the M42V2 is the first model in a new mouse series from the brand. It features two interchangeable back shells, allowing players to adjust the shape to suit palm, claw or fingertip grip styles. The solid- shell construction avoids the perforated designs common in lightweight mice, while maintaining a clean, durable feel. The M42V2 includes button grooves for improved grip, a matte UV coating and UHMW-PE glides, offering smooth, controlled movement without the use of Teflon. Settings such as CPI, polling rate, lift-off distance and debounce time can be adjusted directly on the mouse with no software required. Powered by a Pixart 3327 sensor, the M42V2 supports CPI levels from 400 to 6200, a 1000Hz polling rate and Huano Transparent Blue Shell Pink Dot switches rated for 80 million clicks. A 1.8m CHERRY XTRFY EZcord cable provides flexible, low-drag movement out of the box.
