Miglia DualDisk with WD
Miglia Technology today announced its partnership with Western Digital (WD) and the launch of . Following last year's launch of the Miglia DualDisk, the company has given the device "a makeover" and has begun using Western Digital technology. The compact case integrates two hard drives into a single unit using a unique horizontal format: the ultra-slim aluminium enclosure combines large storage capacity with high data transfer rates peaking at 88MB/sec. Leveraging its advanced DCS cooling system, the FireWire 800-based hard drives run at low temperatures, lengthening their lifespan and securing the data, according to the company. Miglia DualDisk is available in capacities of 320GB ($400), 500GB ($550) and 640GB ($585) and as an empty case--all unit ship with a 5-year warranty and use a 8MB cache/7,200 rpm WD mechanism. In addition DualDisk is now available using the ultimate quality WD Caviar 'Raid Edition' drives, which feature 16MB of cache per device and an MTBF of 5 times a conventional hard drive (pricing not available).
