Examples of how this Voyager S3 bundle can be used in real world situations:
Photographers / Videographers: Keep your photos and video archived and organized by using a separate drive for each volume of your work.
Small Business Applications: Backup important files at end of day and keep the drive separate from your system, either off-site or in a fire-proof safe. Keep multiple drives to have backups from any specific date if your business demands archivability.
Computer Technicians: Easily backup client data to separate disks before working on the machine without the need to utilize an enclosure. It's as easy as using an open bridge board with the protection of a full enclosure.
Home Use: Keep your pictures, financial records, scanned legal documents such as birth certificates and other personal documents safe. Backup your data to a separate drive and keep the drive in a safe or safe deposit box.
For Everyone: Have the piece of mind of a complete backup plan. Create a bootable clone of your drive at regular intervals so if your computer goes down, your productivity doesn't go down with it. Boot to another computer and keep on working! The comprehensive Mac utility used by professionals for accurate Mac diagnosis and maintenance.
- NewerTech Voyager S3 is designed to spin down the hard drive and sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity, even if "Put drives to sleep when possible" is disabled in System Preferences. This is a power-saving and heat management feature.
- Use of eSATA interface requires system reboot in order to recognize hard drive.
- Voyager only accepts SATA interface drives. If you have IDE/ATA interface drives, we recommend the NewerTech USB Universal Drive Adapter.
