This advanced storage solution, designed by OWC, combines the power of USB connectivity, universal drive bays, and SoftRAID capabilities in a sleek, whisper-quiet aluminum enclosure.

The Mercury Elite Pro Quad is engineered to cater to your unique workflow needs, offering the flexibility to elevate your storage capacity, performance, and data security to new heights. It's compatible with all USB systems and Thunderbolt 3, ensuring seamless integration with your existing setup.

Experience blazing fast data transfer speeds of up to 947MB/s, thanks to the RAID 0 & RAID 1 SoftRAID Engine. The four universal drive bays accommodate both 2.5" and 3.5" drives, allowing you to amass up to a colossal 48TB of storage.
