Now that Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 1.1 supports catalog exporting so the library can be moved between multiple computers, having your photo files on a portable drive could add to the convenience of this new functionality. In that vein, Other World Computing (OWC) has announced the Mercury On-The-Go 200 GB portable hard drive. The device has a higher capacity and works up to 50 percent faster than its competitors, according to the company.The Mercury On-The-Go comes with FireWire 800/400, USB2 and eSATA interfaces and is built on the Hitachi 7K200 and Oxford 924 bridge interface. It is compatible with almost all devices with a FireWire or USB port, including digital cameras, and includes ProSoft DataBackup III for OS X and NovaStor NovaBackup for Windows with purchase.
Along with the 200GB model, OWC is also releasing a 250GB model that runs on 5400RPM. The high-capacity 5400RPM drive is also compatible with FireWire, USB and eSATA.
The Mercury On-The-Go 200GB 7200RPM drive is priced at $359.99, while the 250GB 5400RPM drive is $319.99. Both are now available, include a one-year warranty, and come with a carrying case.
