New 80GB Drive and NPL7 Battery for HHB's Portadrive
October 7, 2005
HHB's Portadrive system receives an important upgrade with the
announcement of a new, higher-powered rechargeable battery, and the
availability of a new, 80GB removable drive.
Supplied as a standard accessory with all Portadrives, the new 71 Watt/hour
NPL7 Lithium Ion rechargeable battery replaces the original 52 Watt/hour
NPL50, boosting the time for which the Portadrive can be continuously
operated from two hours to around three. As before, the Portadrive's
intelligent power safety features provide seamless changeover between
external and internal battery power, with the AC adaptor supplied doubling
as a charger for the battery when the Portadrive is not in use.
Available as
an optional accessory, the new PDRDC80 80GB removable HDD caddy can record
9.5 hours of eight-channel, uncompressed, 24-bit/96kHz audio. File transfer
to Mac and PC-based workstations is facilitated by the PDRDSUF FireWire/USB
docking station, which, for a limited period, is being bundled free of
charge with the Portadrive, along with the multi-format PDRDVDBU back-up
drive. A 40GB HHD caddy is supplied with the Portadrive as standard.
HHB products are distributed exclusively in the United States, Mexico,
Central and South America and the Caribbean by Sennheiser Electronic
Corporation. It joins a list of distinguished audio brands that Sennheiser
distributes including Neumann Microphones, True Systems, Rosendahl
Synchronization Systems, Turbosound Loudspeakers and the Australian Monitor
Installation Series.
