OWC introduces the new Mercury Electra MAX 6G SSD 2TB

Specializing in products 100% compatible with Apple systems, OWC is appreciated for a very good average quality of its products. In these days, it is making its debut a new SSD, the Mercury Electra MAX 6G, and reaches the interesting capacity of 2TB.

OWC, which stands for One-World Computing, has always been committed to providing solutions for updating systems, especially with regard to hard disks SSDs and memory modules. The brand has never hidden its predisposition to be offered to the public owners of Apple’s systems, ensuring compatibility with 100% of its accessories (something all obvious, if one thinks of the modules such as memory).

These days OWC SSD has presented a really interesting, which goes by the name of Mercury Electra MAX 6G, marked by the capacity of 2 TB. The main characteristics can be summarized in the interface SATA 6Gbps (already clear by the initials), performance in the order of 500MB/s read and write, and 3-year warranty, while there is no indication on the controller used.

Not bad, since the product is offered to the public in search for a very capacious SSD, offering new features and a large number of GB to Mac systems (but not only) is not of recent generation, so they can re-live a new youth.

The price of the US list is fixed at $799, but the street price is given below $700. A figure that remains high, but it’s interesting anyway given the performance and 2TB available, particularly to revive MacBook Pro systems with 2.5-inch hard drives and paid very high figures. There are many who opt for the upgrade of the old system, especially on the front disk-SSD, considering both the initial costs addressed to these systems, both for the number to be shelling out for possibly buy a new one just to gain in performance.

Spending $700 could still be cost-effective, significantly extending the longevity of a ” dated ” system and equipping it at the same time very interesting performance.
