If you need to transport large data, graphics, or digital-video files without burdening your network, the DataDock may help. Two configurations are available: a $799 desktop unit, which accommodates two modules, and a rack-mount unit (from $885), which accommodates up to six modules. The hard drive modules ($870 to $2499) are available in fast SCSI-2 configurations with capacities of up to 4 GB each. Options include fast-and-wide SCSI-2 hard drives in the same capacities (from $3420); DAT drives of up to 8 GB ($1695 each); 270-MB Syquest modules ($790 each); and 230-MB magneto-optical drives ($1050 each).
