Freecom Hard Drive Pro 1TB eSATA/USB-2

The fastest external hard drive

These days it’s all about speed. More and more people are working with large files such as DTP/ graphical files and uncompressed video and audio. The need for an external hard drive with top speed is more present then ever. The new Freecom Hard Drive Pro, with its eSATA interface, provides you with the fastest data transfer speed to date for a single external hard drive.

Connected to eSATA, the Hard Drive Pro performs up to 6x times faster than a standard USB 2.0 hard drive. For optimal flexibility and portability, the Hard Drive Pro is also equipped with a USB 2.0 connection, so you can connect it to any modern computer that does not have an external SATA interface. The Hard Drive Pro comes in a stylish aluminium enclosure which will compliment the design of your PC or Mac.

It also features Freecom’s unique Sync button; pushing this button activates the Freecom Sync application, for synchronizing files between Hard Drive Pro and computer. The Freecom Hard Drive Pro is pre-formatted (FAT- 32), so you’re ready to use your drive seconds after connecting it to your computer. At Freecom we create storage solutions from a consumer’s perspective, where convenience and quality are key factors.
