Fabrik SimpleTech Duo Pro Drive Reviews

Summary of review published by VideoMaker — March, 2008


Fabrik knows just how much storage multimedia professionals need, that’s why they created the SimpleTech Duo Pro Drive. Forget about gigabytes, this drive packs a whopping 2 terabytes of storage. The Duo Pro Drive is compatible with both Windows and Mac OS-powered computers. Inside the Duo Pro Drive are two 7200 RPM RAID drives that can be easily configured to either RAID 0 or RAID 1 just by flicking a switch at the back of the unit. Also at the back of the unit are the USB 2.0 and eSATA II connections. The reviewer noted that the eSATA II has a throughput of up to three gigabytes per second, far faster than USB 2.0's (almost) half a gig per second maximum throughput. It comes with bundled programs that are available on the drive itself, such as the Fabrik Local Backup and the Fabrik Ultimate Backup that provides two free gigs of online storage, or for a monthly fee of $4.95 per computer, unlimited online storage. With easy to use software and two terabytes of space, the Simpletech Duo Pro Drive is an excellent storage solution.
Pros:
-huge storage space
-comes with eSATA II connection
-backup via RAID 1 or via online

Cons:
-no FireWire
