Designed for professionals, the G-RAID mini from G-Tech is an extremely portable and versatile dual-drive storage system for handling your data. Choose between RAID 0 for enhanced performance and RAID 1 (using the Oxford 936 chipset) for ultimate data security according to your needs, and enjoy flexible connectivity with four high-speed interfaces to choose from.
The 7200RPM drive features USB 2.0, FireWire 400 (via the included cable), FireWire 800 and eSATA connections, the latter helping you reach excellent data transfer speeds of up to 120MB/s. Bus-powered for your convenience - even when connected via eSATA - the external drive offers exceptional portability and benefits from a robust aluminium enclosure suited to on-the-go location work.
Ideal for professional content creation applications, the G-Tech R-RAID mini offers a generous 500GB capacity and is guaranteed to support the real-time, simultaneous playback of multiple layers of video in Final Cut Pro, Premiere and Xpress Pro. The external hard drive supports multi-stream HDV, DVCPro HD, XDCAM HD, ProRes 422 and uncompressed SD workflows. Easy to set up, the 500GB G-RAID Mini offers out-of-the-box functionality for Apple Macs and just needs a quick reformat for use with Windows PCs. The system also appears as a single disk drive for ease of use.
The cost-effective G-RAID mini 7200RPM hard drive ships with the necessary cables, a documentation CD, high-quality leather travel pouch and a three year warranty for complete peace of mind. An all-round impressive solution for safeguarding content (for example data downloaded from professional tapeless video cameras), the G-Tech G-RAID mini has an integrated fan for reliable long-life operation.
