   + USB2 compatibility


  Tired of cheap junky plastic Firewire enclosures that fail because of insufficient cooling? Unhappy with those brick power supplies that clutter up your workspace - and frankly don't supply very stable power to your drives? Then the Burly Hotswap Firewire 800 enclosure is for you. Solid steel construction. Internal power supply and 2 cooling fans to give your precious hard drives the absolute optimum longevity. This is the supreme Firewire enclosure made. Nothing compares today with this rock solid, state of the art storage system. Nothing is faster in a single bay Firewire enclosure either.

  We at MacGurus left no stone unturned in the search for a new paradigm in Firewire storage. This is it. No wimpy plastic here, so burly you can stand on it. Every component chosen for toughness and the prime time ability to support your hard drives with the absolute maximum in cooling and power. In fact we consider that to be the number one minimum priority of ANY drive enclosure: Maintaining the proper conditions for the absolute best possible drive longevity. Is your data worth anything short of that?

  Absolutely the finest Firewire drive you can get for Time Machine, Apple's new backup system. Stick a big backup drive in your Burly 1 Bay and attach it to any computer running Leopard - designate it as the Time Machine backup drive and let 'er run. Time Machine will update the backup every hour, all day and all night. The Burly is completely capable of keeping your backup drive up and safely running 24 hours a day.

  This is the perfect high speed storage for your iMac, Powerbook or new Intel MacBook. External bootable storage for any native Firewire Mac. Fully compatible with Firewire 400 or Firewire 800 ports with the greatest speed possible on both. The Oxford 924 bridge also incorporates a high speed, 480 Mb/sec USB2.0 port for those needing that capability. We recommend Firewire for the most efficient data transfers. USB2 is a bit less capable bus, never designed with hard drive data transfers in mind. It works fine, but Firewire works better giving you the most extreme in high performance.

Features:
  • Oxford 924 Firewire 800 and USB2.0 Bridge board


  • Uses High Speed SATA or SATAII Hard Drives


  • Hotswap Tray and drives compatible with all MacGurus Burly SATA Enclosures
      -Drives and trays can be moved back and forth between enclosures without reformatting


  • Complete with Firewire 400, Firewire 800 and USB2 cables


  • Compatible with any computer with any Firewire or USB port


  • Platform non-specific - Works with any OS

Options:

   Hotswap Drive Trays come in either standard or LCD versions. The LCDs not only satisfy the need for eye candy but have temperature and fan monitoring as well as audible alarms. Additional spare trays can be purchased at bottom of page.
   Note: LCD trays will not work in standard bays. The reverse does work, standard trays work perfectly in LCD bays. So if you have an LCD equipped enclosure you can purchase additional LCD or standard trays. If you have a standard tray equipped enclosure you can only use standard trays.

  Installed Hard Drives from Seagate or Hitachi. You can get your Burly with or without hard drive installed. These are top of the line retail drives with either a 5 year (Seagate) or 3 year (Hitachi) warranty. We will have our technicians install and test any hard drive, either by selecting an enclosure with a hard drive here or by selecting any SATA hard drive from MacGurus SATA Hard Drive page.
