The ELITE Portable Drive
Now up to 640 GB!
Tiny Size and BIG performance. Made to use today's speedy and reliable
2.5
inch SATA Hard drives, connecting them through
an Oxford 924 Firewire 800 USB2.0 bridge. This economically
priced, all metal drive enclosure is just what you need for 'on the go' storage..
Robust - All aluminum construction is tough and capable of withstanding
rough
usage. Maximize your drive safety
by choosing this enclosure with an installed Seagate G-Force
Protected Drive
- this combination gives the greatest shock protection available.
Simplicity - Bus Powered
so only one cable between your computer and the drive.
Plug in the data cable, the drive spins up, mounts and becomes available as your
data storage drive, backup drive or even your boot drive. Perfect for taking
along
on that
long
photo or video shoot for storing or backing up your work as you go.
Speed - Performance is
superb. You will enjoy the full 80 MB/sec transferred over FW800
from the faster of today's current
drives. We specifically recommend the 7200 RPM Momentus drives which we find
to be the preeminent choice in notebook size drives. For that kind of speed
you need
to connect to
a Firewire 800 port. This enclosure will run fine on Firewire 400 or USB as
well, but performance will be reduced when connected through a lesser capable
bus
than Firewire 800. Use of enclosure on a Firewire 400 port will require a Firewire
400 to Firewire 800 cable. Optional FW400 to FW800 adapter cable is available
at the bottom of this page.
Small Size - At 3.34 inch x 5.15 inch x .71 inch, this is about
as little as it gets. Even when stored in its carry case it can fit in your pocket.
Current SATA drives up to currently available 500GB
capacity work perfectly in it, with larger capacities coming out in the future.
The new paradigm in carry along storage.
Note: New drive out, the 640 GB Momentus. This 5400 RPM drive gives us the
biggest capacity yet. Inventory of the drive may be hit or miss as supplies are
limited. Performance is nearly as good as teh faster 7200 RPM Momentus.
