Benchmark #1. Other World Computing "Mercury" 5400 RPM FireWire The OWC Mercury FireWire is our entry-level FireWire drive. The standard 5.25" footprint drives follow a form factor that has been the industry standard for years. This case can be easily stacked with other hard drives, CD-RW drives, or just about any other storage device. The OWC Mercury line always uses 5400rpm drives. At this time they are all Maxtor mechanisms. The OWC Mercury line of drives make absolutely excellent secondary storage units, or backup drives. If you need reasonably priced storage, the OWC Mercury line is a top-notch choice! Another impressive point is the performance gain with OSX. Apple has done an impressive job of improving FireWire performance in its next generation OS. Even under OS 9.2.1 the drive performance is more than adequate for secondary storage or as a backup device for data. |
