New USB3 drive SSD perfect for DJing!
Big Storage. Big Speeds. Small Footprint.
Because it’s a desktop-class SSD, the Envoy Pro mini is fast - lightning fast. In fact, it’s nearly twice as fast as the average thumb drive. Sustained speeds up to 433 MB/s mean real-world performance you can depend on. Available in 120GB and 240GB capacities, it’s a powerful little workhorse with the time-tested pedigree of the OWC SSD family.
I don’t have USB3 on my Mac but wow this things looks awesome, maybe just for backup but you could put heaps of tracks on this thing
its an mSSD in a fancy plastic case lol… I have one inside my laptop as a second harddrive. they look like ram sticks almost

Everything is cheaper when its 6 times the physical size.
$70 for 3" x 5" or $120 for 4" x 1"
a 3" x 5" drive isn’t hard to tote around.

Also requires an additional cable - what I mean is that convenience and size always comes with a cost, its not “that” expensive given the form factor.
But for the same $120 you could get a 256gb mSATA SSD and USB 3 enclosure.

This looks cool how exactly would you have to setup everything in order to utilize it?

And cheaper
In fairness though they aren’t OWC.
You could set up your OS on it.
For File transfer speed, you could just setup your music library location on it.
You could also potentially setup a stripped down “DJ OS” on it
Mushkin do good quality RAM, that’s s good find.
It would be great if someone’s done a test on these
Theres a ton of reviews - it apparently runs really hot during long transfers, and runs REALLY slow when it gets very hot.
Looks identical to the Visiontek Nicky H posted, so guess they are both just rebranded OEM drives
Yeah right so not that good, any reviews in the OWC that youve seen
