Versatile interface featuring eSATA, FireWire and USB in one unit

The Hydra Super-S LCM comes with a choice of four different interfaces all combined into one single unit. FireWire 800 and eSATA where maximizing transfer speed is most important and the more common FireWire 400 or high speed USB 2.0 connections for flexibility to access your data on workstations that do not offer the modern eSATA or FireWire 800 connections. To keep your drives cool, the Hydra uses smart fan technology with the additional option to be set at a fixed speed. It automatically regulates fan speed according to the internal temperature to optimize cooling and reduce the noise level.
