About this product
The Hitachi Duo Pro Drive is a 2TB desktop external hard drive, model 0S00039, designed for robust performance. It offers extensive connectivity with USB 2.0, FireWire 400, FireWire 800, and eSATA interfaces, ensuring broad compatibility with both Mac and PC. This 3.5-inch HDD includes a 16MB cache and is noted for its durable build, low noise level, and transfer rates up to 3 Gb/s.
Our take
For those needing significant external storage with diverse connectivity, this 2TB Hitachi Duo Pro Drive is a compelling option. The combination of USB 2.0, FireWire (400/800), and eSATA ports provides flexibility, especially for users with varying system requirements. While USB 2.0 is dated, the eSATA interface offers a much faster 3 Gb/s transfer rate, which is great for large file transfers. Its 'heavy duty' and 'low noise level' features are appealing for a desktop setup, providing peace of mind regarding durability and quiet operation.
