Designed to meet the ever-increasing storage needs of professionals, including digital photographers, audio/video editors and graphic designers, the DataDock II combines a unique blend of functionality and ease-of-use for both primary and secondary data. Unlike single-drive backup solutions, this solution adds data protection/security and the flexibility to choose redundancy with RAID 1 or the performance of RAID 0. DataDock II’s RAID 1 (mirroring) simultaneously writes data to two independent hard drives – giving users immediate data recovery when needed. If a drive fails, users can continue to access their data while the failed drive is replaced. Data Dock II’s RAID 0 (striping) allows users to write data across both drives for increased performance. The DataDock II utilizes Oxford Semiconductor’s OXUF9360DSB chip to provide four interface options (eSATA, FireWire 400, FireWire 800, and USB 2.0), and data transfer rates of up to 300MB/s using eSATA. A durable aluminum enclosure with a low noise DC fan makes this little unit (9.75 inches long by 5 inches wide by 2.5 inches high) quiet and cool. DataDock II is compatible with Apple Time Machine, and comes with NTI Shadow backup software. MicroNet/Fantom Drives offers optional DataDock II hot-swappable spare drive modules that come with a protective carrying case to keep the module free of dust and moisture. "The DataDock II is a perfect fit for creative professionals who are looking for outstanding data storage functionality at a very affordable price," said Terry Paoli, Marketing Communications Manager, MicroNet/Fantom Drives. "This product meets those demands with superior performance, secure data protection, high capacity storage and tremendous ease-of-use at an unbeatable price." The DataDock II is available now through authorized Ingram Micro VARs and selected e-tailers. The product comes in 1TB, 2TB and 3TB configurations, with MSRP starting at $299.00.
