Other World Computing (OWC) announced on Thursday the immediate availability of their Mercury Elite-AL Pro drives with a powered USB hub. Capacities range from 500 GB to 2 TB.
"With its additional two powered USB 2.0 ports on the rear of the unit and one easy-access USB 2.0 port directly on the front, there's no need for an additional separate hub. The drive is geared to users that need more storage and an easy place to connect devices, like pen drives, bus powered portable hard drives, and any USB 2.0 device," OWC said.
