ToughTech® mini Q

Pocket Drive for Fast 2.5" SATA Drives



A small size for a popular Design
The popular ToughTech is now super tiny! We have taken the ToughTech's rugged and attractive aluminum case and resized it to fit smaller 2.5" SATA drives* - the kind of drive you would find in many modern laptops. Its Oxford 934 chipset gives you fast speeds for connections to your computer via FireWire or USB.

ToughTech mini-Q Features
ToughTech mini-Q boasts improved passive cooling, a Kensington Lock, host connection LEDs and a small size. It offers quad connectivity, connecting out of the box via a screaming fast Oxford 934 chipset.

Small Size
Not much bigger than a pack of playing cards, ToughTech mini will easily travel with you. ToughTech mini will fit in shirt pockets and briefcases with ease.

Accepts SATA drives
SATA drives are the standard. They're fast, and they work natively with the fast Oxford 934 chipset found in ToughTech. The Oxford 934 chipset ensures you the fastest FireWire, USB, and eSATA speeds available.

Connects to almost any Computer
With four interface options, ToughTech mini-Q will connect to practically any computer. ToughTech mini-Q provides dual FireWire 800 ports (backwards compatible to FireWire 400) and a combo eSATA/USB 2.0 port.


To make sure you can connect in any situation, all appropriate cables and adapters are included. See the 'includes' section above.

ToughTech mini is bootable in FireWire mode on any Mac or PC that supports this feature.

Tough Performance
And it's fast! Configure ToughTech mini with a 7200 RPM drive and there is no performance difference between ToughTech mini and our other 7200 RPM drive enclosures.

ToughMount® Anti-Shock Protection
ToughMount strips are mounted between the drive and the enclosure to protect the drive from shock and reduce enclosure noise.

Plug and play
ToughTech works out of the box with no new drivers needed with any modern operating system including Mac OS X and Windows XP, Vista, 7 as well as any distribution of Linux that supports FireWire, USB, or eSATA. If using FireWire, additional FireWire devices can be daisy-chained through ToughTech.

AC Adapter
Most FireWire ports have juice to power ToughTech mini, so most users prefer to use ToughTech mini without an AC adapter for maximum portability. For users who prefer an AC adapter or who must use one with their setup, ToughTech mini comes with an AC adapter.

You will need an AC adapter if the port you use does not provide enough power for ToughTech mini. This includes all 4 pin FireWire hosts (such as Sony iLink which provides no power at all), eSATA ports (which provide no power) and USB ports.

*A few 2.5 inch drives are taller than others, and won't fit in ToughTech mini, which takes the shorter (more common) size. Check to see if the drive you're wanting to install is compatible 9.5mm or taller 12.5mm.
