Overview

OWC Mercury Elite Pro Dual: Elevate Your Storage Experience

The OWC Mercury Elite Pro Dual offers a powerful and reliable storage solution designed to streamline your workflow and safeguard your data. As a creative professional managing high-definition video projects or a home user seeking secure backups, this dual-drive RAID system delivers exceptional performance and versatility to meet your needs. Ensure your files are always accessible, protected, and ready to support your ambitions.

Unmatched Speed for Seamless Workflows

Experience transfer speeds of up to 407MB/s, perfect for handling demanding tasks like editing 4K videos or archiving large photo libraries. The Mercury Elite Pro Dual's hardware RAID 0 configuration maximises throughput, allowing you to work faster and more efficiently. For those prioritising data security, switch to RAID 1 to mirror your files, ensuring peace of mind without compromising performance. With additional options to span drives or use them independently, this storage solution adapts effortlessly to your unique requirements.

Versatile Connectivity for Any Setup

Equipped with both USB 3.2 (5Gb/s) and eSATA ports, the Mercury Elite Pro Dual integrates seamlessly into your existing workspace, whether in a professional studio or home office. This flexibility ensures you can connect to a wide range of devices, from modern Macs to legacy systems, without sacrificing speed. The sleek, brushed-aluminium chassis not only looks professional but also keeps your drives cool with a quiet, high-performance fan, ensuring reliable operation during intensive tasks.

Ready When You Are

Straight out of the box, the Mercury Elite Pro Dual is pre-formatted in HFS+ for macOS and iPadOS, meaning you can plug it in and start working immediately—no complicated setup required. Drive-activity LEDs provide a clear view of your RAID status, while intelligent power management reduces energy use by spinning down drives when idle. This thoughtful design minimises wear, extending the lifespan of your investment and keeping your workspace efficient.
