The GMAX, as we affectionately call it, incorporates energy efficient technologies for up to a 40% power savings, using four platters instead of five. This means it generates less heat, which extends drive life. Plus, its thermo-regulated \u201cSmart Fan\u201d\u00a0increases in speed during heavy drive usage, so it is not running at full power all the time.<\/p>\n<p>The Guardian MAXimus &#8220;live activity&#8221; backup\/data redundant external solution saves data while you work on two SATA hard drives, so you have a &#8220;mirror&#8221; of your files. It&#8217;s not only energy efficient, but protects you against a system crash. Choose from 250GB to 2.0TB drives (in pairs) for peace of mind storage in one convenient package. The new 2TB solution with eSATA was introduced on April 21st.<\/p>\n<p>All models include four interfaces (FireWire 400 and 800, USB 2.0, and eSATA), <strong>a complete set of interface connecting cables<\/strong>, and over 1GB of software. No need to search for backup software, because the software bundle includes Prosoft Engineering&#8217;s Backup and Bombich Software&#8217;s always-popular Carbon Copy Cloner. Plus, the drive supports Time Machine. PC users get NovaStor NovaBACKUP for Windows.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/gmax-newer-edit.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-947\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/gmax-newer-edit.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"236\" \/><\/a> We know you don&#8217;t want to just take our word for how well this drive works in the real world, so check the links below for independent reviews.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/701-newertech-guardian-maximus-and-raid\" target=\"_blank\">A Year With NewerTech Guardian Maximus and RAID<\/a>, an OWC blog post with links to Eric Brodeur&#8217;s blog.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/terrywhite.com\/techblog\/?s=guardian+maximus&amp;submit=Go\" target=\"_blank\">Guardian Maximus for up to the minute protection,<\/a> by Terry White on his blog, 6\/11\/08.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.geardiary.com\/2008\/06\/05\/the-newer-tech-guardian-maximus-raid-mirrored-data-redundant-solution-review\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Newer Tech Guardian MAXimus RAID Mirrored Data Redundant Solution Review,<\/a> by Judie Lipsett at Gear Diary, 6\/5\/08.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/typicalmacuser.com\/wordpress\/2008\/05\/12\/review-guardian-maximus-raid-drive-enclosure\/#more-1005\" target=\"_blank\">Review &#8211; Guardian Maximus RAID Drive Enclosure,<\/a> by George Starcher, at Typical MacUser, 5\/12\/08.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lest Earth Day be celebrated and forgotten, I want to remind you that the NewerTech Guardian MAXimus is a leader in green technology.
