G-Drive mobile USB is designed for the MacBook, with a matching sliver finish and USB connectivity, while the G-Drive mobile is suitable for the MacBook Pro with its dual FireWire 800 ports and black finish. G-Drive mobile hard drives are bus-powered, eliminating the need to carry an external AC power supply.

The G-DRIVE mini comes in capacities up to 750GB and features high-speed FireWire 800 (FireWire 400 via cable) and USB 2.0 for connectivity. The system is bus-powered. A built-in “fan-less” cooling system is designed to silently dissipate heat.

The G-RAID drive is capable of delivering over 200 MB/second transfer rate when connected to any Mac or PC via eSATA. The all-aluminum-designed system is available in storage capacities up to 6TB. Its soft-touch On/Off switch and thermo-regulated “smart” fan keeps the G-RAID reliable, cool and quiet in the editing suite.
