Sonnet 640GB Fusion F2 Portable Hard Drive

Fusion F2 employs two 320GB, 5,400 RPM, 2.5" Mobile hard drives that offer an optimal balance between speed, power consumption, and reliability. Sonnet chose these high-performance drives because they offer greater areal density than other mobile hard drives (pack more Data per platter), use the 3 Gb/sec SATA interface, and deliver better performance than the 7,200 RPM drives we tested; simply put, they are the fastest 2.5" mobile hard drives available today. Fusion F2’s drives are also extremely quiet and very rugged, making the Fusion F2 a great travel companion for your mobile studio. Fusion F2 features two 3 Gb/sec eSATA data ports. By connecting via a direct SATA II interface with no Bridge chip between the F2’s case and SATA II drives, there is no resulting Communication slowdown, just the fastest data transfers possible. Fusion F2 uses a novel method to power itself; it draws power from your notebook’s FireWire 400 port.
Fusion Storage systems support Mac OS X, Windows Vista, Windows XP Professional, and Linux. It is compatible with capture cards from AJA, Blackmagic Design, Matrox, and Bluefish, and works with all mainstream Video Editing applications including Apple® Final Cut Pro, and Adobe Premier Pro CS3.

Ultra-Portable—Two 2.5" SATA drives mounted side-by-side inside a 5.9" x 6.2" x 0.72" aluminum case are bus-powered for the ultimate in portability

Remarkably Fast—With its drives Formatted as a RAID 0 volume, Fusion F2 delivers sustained data transfer rates up to 126MB/sec read and write, nearly twice as fast as a pair of FireWire 800 drives

Field Video Certified–With its SATA data interface, Fusion F2 is the perfect storage companion for a portable Video capture system that may saturate a notebook’s FireWire bus

Rugged and Reliable—Both drives are individually shock-isolated, virtually eliminating cross-coupled vibration, which, unchecked, can induce soft errors—a potential source of skipped frames

Cool and Quiet—Because of its efficient fanless design, if not for the cool blue LEDs, you may not even know that Fusion F2 was running
