Designed for users who require high capacity storage with fast transfer speeds, the Mercury Elite Pro Quad is ideal for use by post production firms, photographers, creative agencies, higher education programs, and small businesses.

The Mercury Elite Pro Quad’s powerful USB-C interface delivers 10Gb/s USB 3.1 Gen 2 bandwidth and works with any USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 equipped Mac or Windows PC. Simply connect the Mercury Elite Pro Quad via the included USB-C cable to experience next-level performance. If your computer doesn’t feature USB-C connectivity, the included USB-C to USB-A cable brings backward compatibility for machines with legacy USB ports.  

Capacity without Compromise
Compatible with 2.5” and 3.5” drives, the Mercury Elite Pro Quad’s four universal drive bays let users pack up to a massive 48TB of storage. With this level of capacity and drive flexibility, you will not have to compromise when it comes to your storage.

Speed, Storage, and Security with SoftRAID
The Mercury Elite Pro Quad features advanced RAID capabilities, meaning you can choose the best option for your workflow. Whether you want massive capacity through a single large array, need maximum performance up to 947MB/s, or redundancy to keep your data secure, the Mercury Elite Pro Quad gives you the power of choice with OWC’s proprietary SoftRAID engine or Windows-supported RAID modes. The Mercury Elite Pro Quad is also available in a RAID-ready model so you can install the RAID software of your choice.

Designed by Professionals. Designed for Professionals.
Every detail was considered when designing the Mercury Elite Pro Quad. Built with a heat-dissipating aluminum enclosure, a whisper-quiet fan, and vibration-absorbing feet, the Mercury Elite Pro Quad runs cool and quietly, making it ideal for noise-sensitive environments. Front-facing LEDs provide an instant drive-activity snapshot, while the front panel access lock keeps your drives safe. You can even secure the entire drive with the rear-mounted Kensington compatible lock slot. On top of that, drive-equipped models undergo OWC’s multi-hour drive “burn-in” performance certification procedure to ensure that your drive arrives operating properly and ready to perform.

The Mercury Elite Pro Quad 4-bay external storage device is now available at MacSales.com and authorized OWC resellers.
