Dynamode have launched FireCaddy - a new EzeStor Network Attached Storage (NAS) Caddy that allows any SATA or e-SATA hard disk to be used as external storage. The Caddy has a FireWire 2 interface (backward compatible to FireWire 1) that allows a maximum data transfer speed of an astonishing 800Mbps, perfect for large data files such as those used in heavy graphics applications, real time video editing, server backup or simply backing up mixed media data. The FireCaddy allows anyone to acquire additional storage on their network for around £75 plus the cost of the drive. Available in a stylish aluminium housing with a built-in HDU fan, the FireCaddy has its own ARM processor, a second external E-SATA interface to allow an additional drive to be connected and it also has a USB 2.0 port with a data transfer rate of 480Mbps. The FireCaddy comes with all necessary cables – FireWire, e-SATA and USB.

According to Hoj Parmar of Dynamode, “Any user can easily fit whatever size of SATA hard drive he wants into this cool and quiet enclosure and a simple, easy to use web-based interface sets it up as a Mass Storage device in seconds. It is perfect for any application that needs to transfer large data files at blistering speed and provides highly cost effective data storage.”
