To really get useful performance out of it the drive should sport at least a FireWire 400. Any FireWire connection actually has sustained transfer rates as opposed to the huge drops USB suffers from. My LaCie Rugged portable is 5400 as well but I have it connected to my MacBook Pro via FireWire 800 and it's crazy fast.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[FoxKenji]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 5th 2009 6:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OWC shoves 750GB hard drive into Mercury On-The-Go Pro]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/05/owc-shoves-750gb-hard-drive-in-mercury-on-the-go-pro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/05/owc-shoves-750gb-hard-drive-in-mercury-on-the-go-pro/</guid><description><![CDATA[<a href="http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MS8U5750GB8/" rel="nofollow">http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MS8U5750GB8/</a><br><br>Yay for read link.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kizorblade]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 5th 2009 6:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OWC shoves 750GB hard drive into Mercury On-The-Go Pro]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/05/owc-shoves-750gb-hard-drive-in-mercury-on-the-go-pro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/05/owc-shoves-750gb-hard-drive-in-mercury-on-the-go-pro/</guid><description><![CDATA[@FoxKenji:  After talking with many companies, I found that support for Firewire is being phased out.  Although the max percentage and power capability are usually better than USB, the new USB standard is a good bit faster.  So, for smaller transfers, USB 3.0 should theoretically be faster, by over a Mbit/sec.  While I do prefer firewire (though all the firewire/usb drives I have are faster on USB setting), this is what I've been told.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 5th 2009 12:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OWC shoves 750GB hard drive into Mercury On-The-Go Pro]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/05/owc-shoves-750gb-hard-drive-in-mercury-on-the-go-pro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/05/owc-shoves-750gb-hard-drive-in-mercury-on-the-go-pro/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'm not totally sure on this, but isn't it true that the bigger your drive is, the more compressed it is?  More compression=less space needed to move to read/write data, and therefore faster data transfer speeds?  Theoretically from what I've heard, a 1TB drive running at 5200RPM would read and write as fast as a 500GB 10400RPM hard drive.<br><br>If that's right at all, this drive would probably be an OK choice after all for speed, right?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mmmm...

By "portable" I assume OWC means 2.5 inch form factor- I can visit Newegg right now and get a 500GB Seagate drive for $90 and slap it in a $10 off-brand enclosure, and I have myself a slightly smaller drive for less than half the price. At that price, I could get 2 and have 1TB of external storage around for less than OWC is charging for a 750GB drive in a clear plastic box. I'm a Mac user, and I would never stoop so low as to pay that much for the convenience of not having to perform the onerous task of opening disk utility and clicking "format," which is something I do with every external drive I own. Nobody should be conned into buying this drive.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[person]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 6th 2009 2:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on OWC shoves 750GB hard drive into Mercury On-The-Go Pro]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/05/owc-shoves-750gb-hard-drive-in-mercury-on-the-go-pro/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/05/owc-shoves-750gb-hard-drive-in-mercury-on-the-go-pro/</guid><description><![CDATA[Remember that translucent casing fad from WAY back?
