Product Information

Overview

OWC HDD Mercury Elite Pro Dual

The Mercury Elite Pro Dual with 3-Port Hub gives you nearly infinite options for your workspace. This beautiful, modern designed solution is universally USB compatible and can handle diverse workflows. Compact and available plug and play ready, the Mercury Elite Pro Dual is not only super fast, convenient, and versatile, it will quickly become the centrepiece of your digital lifestyle.

High performance where it matters, the Mercury Elite Pro Dual with 3-Port Hub delivers over 1000MB/s (1GB/s) of real-world data transfer speed. Now you can transfer the equivalent of an entire DVD in less than 5 seconds or transfer 1,000 photos in 2 seconds. Performance like this is great for backup, photography, audio, virtual machines, even video editing.

The rear-side hub offers three USB ports to connect high-speed storage with performance of up to 1250MB/s as well as keyboards, mice, phones, etc. In short, you can connect virtually any USB peripheral or device you have, and the Mercury Elite Pro Dual with 3-Port Hub supports it.

Multiple Bays, Multiple Options

From high-demand production studios to your home office, the Mercury Elite Pro Dual seamlessly integrates with any work environment. Dual drive bays let you install your choice of 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch SSDs or HDDs. Built-in hardware RAID gives you enhanced data protection or maximum throughput.

Single-Click Drive + Dock Ejection

Need to take it on the go or disconnect it? Or, maybe you’re done with the drives? OWC’s free Dock Ejector app lets you safely dismount the OWC Mercury Elite Pro Dual with 3-Port Hub and any additional external drives connected to it from your computer in a single click. You’ll be sure that all data has been safely written before any drive is unmounted, protecting against accidental data loss or corruption.

Ready to Work Anywhere

At 5.8” high x 3.3” wide and weighing under four pounds with SSDs installed, the Mercury Elite Pro Dual with 3-Port Hub is compact leaving you more workspace as well as being able to take with anywhere. It connects to any Mac or PC with an available USB port, so it’s universally compatible with nearly all USB computers from the last decade up to the latest machines. You can also work cross-platform with Macs and PCs using OWC's MacDrive software (sold separately).

Secure Your Workflow with OWC ClingOn

Active workspaces expose gear to bumps, shoves, and the random tail wag from a pet. Just one ill-timed touch can cause an accidental cable disconnection interruption to your workflow. The OWC ClingOn custom cable stabilisers (sold separately) screw into the OWC Mercury Elite Pro Dual with 3-Port Hub housing to secure your USB-C connections so you can work with confidence even in the highest foot traffic environments.

Universal USB Compatible with Included Cables

To help you start working immediately and hassle-free with any USB machine, OWC include high-quality USB connecting cables right in the box.

  • Pro-grade storage with real-world tested performance
  • Optional, user configurable hardware RAID settings for 0, 1, Span, or independent mode
  • Universally compatible: works with any USB-equipped Mac, PC, or mobile device such as iPad Pro, gaming consoles, anything that supports external storage
