\"ministack-ice\"It’s the middle of January, and it’s C-O-L-D here in Woodstock, IL. We even had to stop OWC Grant<\/a> from licking our Wind Turbine<\/a> because his tongue kept sticking to it<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Though it may be cold out, the deals are just heating up. Last week, we had some great price drops<\/a> on the NewerTech Guardian MAXimus<\/strong>. Now, that torch has passed on to the GMAX’s little brother, the miniStack v3<\/strong>. We’ll talk about that in a moment. Right now, let’s look at what you get.<\/p>\n

The NewerTech miniStack v3<\/a> provides up to 2.0TB of storage<\/strong> with support for FireWire 800\/400, USB2, and eSATA, plus the convenience and the function of an integrated FireWire\/USB2 Powered Hub<\/strong>. All of that functionality is packed into a compact “Mac mini” sized profile of 6.5\u201d x 6.5\u201d x 1.5\u201d.<\/p>\n

Ideal for any Mac or PC, the miniStack v3 offers full compatibility for performance data access via whichever interface you have best available. The “Quad Interface” <\/strong>offered makes this great for moving between multiple systems; you can connect via FireWire 800, FireWire 400, USB2, or eSATA for up to 150MB\/second performance.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Even if you don’t use it for your boot drive, its availability in capacities up to 2.0TB make it great for General Data, Backup (it’s Time Machine Ready), Audio\/Video (it’s also fully A\/V Certified), Music, Photo work, and more. You can even use it as a startup drive; it’s fully bootable from any of the 4 interfaces.<\/p>\n

It doesn’t even make a dent in your computer’s available ports, as its built-in Powered Hub <\/strong>provides additional FireWire 800, FireWire 400, and USB2 ports.<\/p>\n

As with all OWC and Newer Technology storage solutions, the FireWire 800, FireWire 400, USB2, and eSATA cables all included, as well as Intech HD Speedtools (Mac), Prosoft DataBackup 3 (OS X), NovaBackup (Windows), and Carbon Copy Cloner (OS X) Software. And because we stand behind our products, the miniStack v3 is backed by an industry leading 3 Year NewerTech Warranty<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

However, that’s probably not why you’ve read this far. We mentioned some great new price drops, so here they are:<\/p>\n
