For the Mac professional market Iomega designed UltraMax 1TB hard drive. This is a safe solid bet for a hard drive that won't let you down. It will not overheat or become slow due to the rate of transfer. With 1TB of storage capacity, you'll be able to save up to 4,000,000 photos, 18,500 hours of music, 1,500 hours of video and more.

The main Features of the Hard Drive is

    An easy way to add 1TB of storage space to a computer.

    Three connection interfaces including FireWire and USB for fast speeds and compatibility.

    Stylish looks that complement a Mac.

    Included backup software.

The Portable Hard Drive comes in an attractive silver case that has USB2 and FireWire 400 ports. At the rear of the case there are FireWire 400 port, two FireWire 800 ports, one eSata port and a generous three USB 2 ports that act as a hub. USB2 and FireWire 400 ports are about 20 cms long and 9.6 in depth and 5.1 pounds weight which is fair bit. The Fast FireWire 800 interface offers a great compatibility. IT makes it easier to use. A two-plug USB splitter cable and a six-pin FireWire cable are included so you shouldn't need to use an external power adaptor. The bundled Retrospect Express utility can back up your files according to a schedule and can store previous versions of files. Three-port USB hub and three FireWire ports allow for additional connections. It delivers transfer rates of up to 800 Mbps when connected via the FireWire® 800 interface. The drive supports RAID 0 for the ultimate performance, RAID 1 for data security, and JBOD, or just a bunch of disks, for maximum capacity. RAID 0 is good for speed and drive space, and JBOD just spans the drives, giving you 1 TB of storage without the speed benefits of RAID 0. The UltraMax is very speedy; it takes just 44 seconds to transfer our standard 1.2GB file over FireWire 800. Its better than FireWire 400.

Performance of the Drive is good for a portable hard disk, and there was no real difference in speed between the two interfaces.
