**FOR RESELLERS ONLY

Do you have customers calling with archived data stuck on MO Disks?

Are your customers archived images stuck on an island with no rescue boat in sight?

Many Imaging professionals are finding themselves burdened with this common problem; they’ve got a stack of 3.5 inch Magneto Optical Disks loaded with valuable studies, but no way to access the data.Many practitioners have seen their Drives disappear with the ushering in of new computers or equipment, effectively stranding their data. Fujitsu was one of the first manufacturers to offer a solution; with their Dynamo line of pocket drives they finally allowed practitioners a cheap, portable way to unchain their archived data. Today Fujitsu has all but exited the external drive market once again leaving imaging practitioners in limbo.

Techware Distribution is proud to announce that it has been named the sole US distributor of the Konica Minolta MO-PRO 1300.

The Konica Minolta drive is a USB 2.0 plug-n-play 1.3-gigabyte drive, perfect for reading and writing MO disks from 128 megabytes all the way up to 1.3 gigabytes. It is a pocket style drive that simply shows up as your next available drive. Slightly larger than an ipod, the drive is compatible with both Windows and Mac and is USB powered, meaning that there is no power brick to hassle with. The drive is brand new in the factory box, comes with a 1-year manufacturer warranty and offers an affordable bridge to your stranded data. Compatible with 3.5 inch Magneto Optical Disks in capacities; 128mb, 230mb, 540mb,640mb & 1.3gb .
