Tema: Testeo de base especial Mac mini: Maxelerate Storage Hub for Mac

Bien, les cuento que estoy en este mismo instante testeando una nueva base que importamos para probar si resultaban buenas.
Resulta que terminaron siendo muy buenas, especialmente para Mac mini por su diseño, pero al ver las performances me di cuenta que en realidad puede servir para cualquier Mac. La verdad que buenisima.

Caracteristicas:

Faster Boot Drive
Maxelerate boasts a disk read and write performance that is 30 percent faster than the drive that comes inside of the Mac mini. And because it's bootable, use it as a startup disk, taking full advantage of FireWire technology.

Thermally Engineered
Continuing WiebeTech's tradition of using intelligent metal design, Maxelerate is thermally engineered with heat issues in mind. Its aluminum design with integral internal die cast heat sink and fan allows for excellent cooling.

Store more stuff
Maxelerate holds drives up to 500GB. That's up to 12 times the 40GB or 6 times the 80GB internal storage that comes in a Mac mini. It gives you perfect growing room to edit more home movies, take more pictures, and listen to more music.

Connect more stuff
Maxelerate sports daisy-chainable ports: three USB2 ports and three FireWire ports, making it an ideal central station for more hard drives, digital cameras or many other computer peripherals.

Free more space
Best of all, you can achieve this speed, storage and all of the new ports in a space no bigger than the Mac mini itself. Beautifully designed out of aluminum to complement Apple's design, Maxelerate fits perfectly underneath any Mac mini.

Features
Three USB 2.0 ports and three FireWire 400 ports; daisy chainable.
Supports Hi-Speed USB data transfer speed of up to 480Mbps, and IEEE 1394a data transfer speed of up to 400Mbps.
Supports 3.5" IDE drives.
Delivers bus power from host for USB 1.1 and 2.0 devices/hub and FireWire 400 repeater.
Allows daisy-chaining of USB 1.1/2.0 and/or FireWire 400 devices.
Built-in power switch.

Sip, efectivamente tambien existen de LaCie solo hubs, pero me parecio muy caro (unos 50 o 60 U$S) por un hub para Mac mini. Esta carcaza esta saliendo 90 U$S IVA incluido y se le puede poner el disco que uno quiera.
