 Iomega photo hard drive
The Iomega photo hard drive XL is designed for families and road warriors that have long struggled with the inconvenience of transporting computer-based digital media (audio, video, and still image files), the ScreenPlay Multimedia Drive offers new freedom to anyone who wants to enjoy digital video, photo albums, music collections and work files on any TV or A/V receiver-without the need for a computer. The Iomega Desktop Hard Drive XL Series is now available for 899.95 dollar.
Managing digital video, photographs & music
"Projects like video editing push the limits of today's storage drives, particularly as the market shifts towards high-definition video, so Iomega created the XL Series to erase the bottleneck that a single drive represents in terms of power and performance," said Lee Williams, Vice President, Product Generation, Iomega Corporation. "Whether it's editing and managing digital video, photographs, music or work files, the Iomega XL Series hard drive takes advantage of today's fastest interfaces and most advanced storage technologies to deliver a uniquely powerful device for the next generation of applications."
Iomega XL drive - USB 2.0 & FireWire
The new Iomega XL Series drive connects to the host PC through one of its three built-in interfaces: FireWire 800, FireWire 400 or USB 2.0 (backwards compatible with USB 1.1). Measuring a svelte 6.42" x 7.99" x 12.52" (W x H x L), the attractive XL Series enclosure takes up little space on the desktop, yet packs incredible power:
SATA hard disk - 8mb cache
Four 250GB SATA drives, each running at 7200 RPM with 8MB cache for high performance; Configurable as RAID 0 (striped) for maximum throughput. "Not everyone needs a terabyte of storage, but an increasing number of today's digital home computer users and small businesses have put together small networks that are literally running out of space to back up their daily files or work on data-intensive projects," said Williams. "The XL Series drive gives them an ocean of available space for projects and day-to-day backup, and it also gives them easy disaster recovery through full disk imaging."
Iomega automatic backup pro - Windows & DOS
For Windows users, Iomega includes Iomega Automatic Backup Pro software for professional-level backup and disaster recovery for critical data. IAB Pro software effortlessly backs up files on a scheduled or continuous basis. It also gives users professional-level disaster recovery from within Windows, eliminating the need to boot to DOS. Data security is further enhanced with IAB Pro software's AES file encryption, its ability to back up multiple file revisions, and its easy configuration of scheduled backups if preferred. And with 2.6:1 file compression, IAB Pro can make each megabyte of storage capacity go further.
