Pro Sled - Transintl LLC

The Mac Pro includes four sleds that slide in and out in seconds, but Apple doesn’t sell extras. Then there’s the Pro Sled, Transintl’s replacement Mac Pro hard drive chassis. However, the Pro Sled feels cheaper and requires much more force - as in am-I-going-to-break-my-Mac force - to insert and remove drives... read more at MacLife

The 1TB My Book has the size to match its massive storage capacity - the case measures 6.9 by 6.27 by 4.1 inches. Like the UltraMax, the My Book has a pair of 500GB hard drives formatted for the Mac with HFS+ as a RAID 0. If you want to reconfigure the My Book, Western Digital's RAID Manager software does it easily with a few clicks ...read more at MacLife

ULTRAMAX DESKTOP - Iomega

Inside the Mac Pro-esque UltraMax case is a pair of hard drives formatted for the Mac with HFS+ configured as a RAID 0 (a "striped" set, which essentially gives you faster data rates). The UltraMax is ready to go right out of the box ...read more at MacLife

eSATA EXTERNAL - Seagate

A couple of things make the eSATA External stand out in our trio. The major difference is that the drive can only use an external Serial ATA connection. It comes bundled with an eSATA PCI card that you can plug into any Mac with a PCI slot, which means you can use it only with tower Macs ...read more at MacLife

Safe Mobile Hard Drive 80GB - LaCie

SECURITY ALWAYS comes at a price. In the case of LaCie's Safe Mobile Hard Drive, which requires fingerprint identification before letting you access the contents, the financial price is actually very reasonable. At $200, the 80MB Safe is priced comparably to other 80GB mobile-friendly hard drives without any high-tech fingerscanning technology ...read more at macHOME

G-RAID 800 - G-Technology

RAID Level 0, also referred to as striping, increases a drive system’s overall data-transfer speed by splitting the information between drives. A two-drive RAID 0 unit, for example, will typically be almost twice as fast as a single drive. That extra speed lets you do things like edit uncompressed standard-definition video ... read more at Macworld

Bigger Disk Extreme 1.6TB - LaCie

In multimedia environments, storage is king. When it comes to video editing, the faster the storage, the better. And big storage capacity doesn’t hurt either. For years, expensive high-speed SCSI or Fibre Channel drives were the only option, but now a new generation of speedy FireWire 800 storage systems is entering the picture ... read more at Macworld

Bigger Disk Extreme 1TB - LaCie

When we first visited LaCie's 1TB Bigger Disk ( Aug/04, p55), it simply spanned its four 250GB hard drives—the firmware in the Bigger Disk made the device appear to your Mac as a single 1-terabyte drive. So what makes the Bigger Disk Extreme 1TB Extreme? LaCie has added RAID 0, which improves its speed considerably ... read more at MacAddict

Ioraid 40GB & 160GB Hard drives - Raidius

At first glance, the Ioraid drives look similar to other external hard drives - in fact, the only difference between these and any other drive is the extra FireWire 400 port. This houses a data-encryption key, which is standard across the range of Ioraid products and is used to decrypt the complex protection system. A heavy-duty metal case surrounds the drives, which is very reassuring. ... read more at MacUserUK

KUNA 250GB - Tikimac

Although a notch more reserved than the reptilian FireWire hubs and devilish flash drive ducks that it also distributes, Tikimac still manages to inject a hint of fun into its Kuna 250GB external hard drive, if not from the spunky design then at least from the optional Lava FireWire and USB 2.0 cables that glow in one of four colors when connected ... read more at macHOME
