  • Pay attention, there are two Cobras : the little, portable, 2.5" 5400 rpm CobraSlim (max 48 GB, the others are 4200 rpm) ; and the bigger, 3.5" 7200 rpm Cobra+ (up to 100 GB). A little FW HD is very cool indeed, but if you want to do digital video …
    in Best Firewire ext HD ? Comment by prim January 2002
  • For speed, always look for a FireWire drive with the technology "Oxford 911". it is the name of the bridge between the IDE input and the FireWire output (there is no yet any "native" FireWire drive on the market). Others bridges suck. IMHO the be…
