Stardom U6 USB2.0/SATA 500GB
The Stardom U6 500GB is an external USB2.0 and eSATA hard drive which can accommodate removable bays. A removable bay allows hard disks, housed in a caddy, to be inserted into the U6 unit. This is very useful if you have a requirement for storing vast amounts of data, but need to keep the data separate, or indeed to have the data in a portable format. Editing digital video, sound recording/sampling, professional photographers, backing up various computers; each application can benefit from the U6.
Another important feature of the U6 range is that it can accept both PATA (IDE) and SATA hard drives, by using the relevant caddy.
Save projects on individual disks
We supply the U6 unit with a 500GB hard drive. You can add additional hard drives by simply purchasing a caddy, and an additional hard drive. In this way you can a virtually unlimited number of disks to use with your U6 unit. It is also a great way of moving disks between computers, the quickest way of moving huge amounts of data!
Store a project on a disk
Possibilities for the U6 data storage drive are endless and provide a flexible method of portable data storage and backup. For example, each project can be on a new disk, or a daily backup can be saved on one disk and the following day’s backup on another disk. Having multiple disks connected through one port to your computer, is far neater than having numerous individual USB hard drives, each with its own power supply.
Various capacities, all drives supported
The Stardom U6 range is supplied in three capacities. This version is supplied with a 500GB hard drive. We also have 250GB and 750GB USB2.0 capacities available.
One caddy is included, and if you need more caddies, you can buy either an IDE or SATA caddy. The U6 takes both versions of hard drive. The caddies will accommodate hard drives from Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Maxtor, Excelstor and others.
Take it anywhere
To connect to the external bay unit, the computer needs to have a USB port. Computers with USB1.1 and USB2.0 ports are supported. A universal power supply is included, allowing the U6 drive to function worldwide. Computers with SATA ports can also use the drive.
