Pocket Drive for Fast 2.5" SATA Drives



A small size for a popular Design
The popular ToughTech is now super tiny! We have taken the ToughTech's rugged and attractive aluminum case and resized it to fit smaller 2.5" SATA drives* - the kind of drive you would find in many modern laptops. Its Oxford 924 chipset gives you the fastest speeds for connections to your computer via FireWire 800, FireWire 400 or USB.


Which ToughTech mini is right for you?
ToughTech comes in two flavors with FireWire and combo USB and eSATA connections. Choose the mini that's right for you:

ToughTech FS mini

Great

Triple interface: Two FireWire 400 ports, one USB 2/eSATA combo port.

Accepts 2.5" SATA drives*

Don't need FireWire 800? This is the mini for you.		 ToughTech XE mini

Best

Quadruple interface: Two FireWire 800 ports (backwards compatible to FireWire 400), one USB 2/eSATA combo port.

Accepts 2.5" SATA drives*

The fastest FireWire makes this the fastest mini.

Soft-grain Drive Case for Pocket Drives Order code: CASE-PD
$14.95     In stock


The Pocket Drive Case transports the ToughTech™ mini or ComboGB™ with style and durability. The high quality black leatherette case emblazoned with the WiebeTech logo is perfect for storing and protecting small 2.5" drive enclosures. And the sturdy Velcro flap keeps enclosures snugly tucked away until needed. Keep your files safe and portable with the attractive convenience of a WiebeTech Pocket Drive Storage Case.

The Pocket Case is included FREE with the purchase of a ComboGB or ToughTech mini with pre-installed, pre-formatted notebook drives.


Small Size
Not much bigger than a pack of playing cards, ToughTech mini will easily travel with you. ToughTech mini will fit in shirt pockets and briefcases with ease.

Accepts SATA drives
SATA drives are becoming more popular. They're faster, and they work with the faster Oxford 924 chipset found in ToughTech mini. This chipset ensures you the fastest FireWire and USB speeds available.

Connects to almost any Computer
With a triple or quadruple (XE mini) interface, you'll be able to hook it to practically any computer out there. ToughTech XE mini provides dual FireWire 800 ports (backwards compatible to FireWire 400) and a combo eSATA/USB2 port. As a result, you can connect it to any computer running any recent operating system.






To make sure you can connect in any situation, all appropriate cables and adapters are included. See the 'includes' section above.

ToughTech mini is bootable in FireWire mode on any Mac or PC that supports this feature.

Tough Performance
And it's fast! Configure ToughTech mini with a 7200 RPM drive and there is no performance difference between ToughTech mini and our other 7200 RPM drive enclosures.

ToughMount™ Anti-Shock Protection
ToughMount strips are mounted between the drive and the enclosure to protect the drive from shock and reduce enclosure noise.

Plug and play
ToughTech mini works out of the box with no new drivers needed with any modern operating system including Mac OS 9.1, 9.2, OS X and Windows 2K, XP, as well as any distribution of Linux that supports FireWire or USB. If using FireWire, additional FireWire devices can be daisy-chained through ToughTech mini.

AC Adapter
Most FireWire ports have juice to power ToughTech mini, so most users prefer to use ToughTech mini without an AC adapter for maximum portability. For users who prefer an AC adapter or who must use one with their setup, ToughTech mini comes with an AC adapter.

You will need an AC adapter if the port you use does not provide enough power for ToughTech mini. This includes all 4 pin FireWire hosts (such as Sony iLink which provides no power at all), eSATA ports (which provide no power) and USB ports.

*A few 2.5 inch drives are taller than others, and won't fit in ToughTech mini, which takes the shorter (more common) size. Check to see if the drive you're wanting to install is compatible 9.5mm or taller 12.5mm.
