Elgato Announces Portable Thunderbolt SSD

Elgato Announces Portable Thunderbolt SSD

Posted January 9, 2012 at 7:40pm by iClarified
Elgato today announced the Elgato Thunderbolt SSD that combines a reliable solid-state drive with Thunderbolt technology in a portable metal enclosure that outperforms FireWire and USB drives. The Elgato Thunderbolt SSD draws its power from the Thunderbolt port and does not need to be connected to an additional power source.

Lightning-fast and ultraportable
Pairing a speedy Solid State Drive (SSD) with the unrivaled bandwidth of the Thunderbolt interface, the Elgato Thunderbolt SSD offers significantly higher performance than any portable FireWire or USB storage solutions. As the Elgato Thunderbolt SSD draws its power directly through the Thunderbolt port, it doesn't require an external power supply. That way, the data on the drive is always available – even when there's no power source nearby.

Reliable and completely silent
Unlike traditional portable hard drives, the design of the Elgato Thunderbolt SSD contains no moving parts, so it's less prone to faults. The metal enclosure doesn't just look great – it also ensures optimal heat dissipation. As this design doesn't need a noisy fan, it operates completely silently, despite its constantly screaming performance.


Pricing and availability
The Elgato Thunderbolt SSD is available in February and can be purchased from Elgato (www.elgato.com), Apple, and selected retailers for 399,95 Euro (120 GB version) and 649,95 Euro (240 GB version).
