NewerTech miniStack FireWire/USB Storage Solution Enhanced for Ultra
Quiet Operation

Performance A/V Rated FW/USB Storage uses intelligent cooling and best hard drive mechanisms

WOODSTOCK, IL (December 12, 2006) Newer Technology, Inc. (NewerTech)
today announced that the implementation of engineering enhancements on the award winning NewerTech miniStack V2 combo external storage solution and integrated FireWire and USB 2.0 port expansion hub has
resulted in even quieter operation. Visit: www.newertech.com/products/ministackv2.php

The miniStack has gained fame and popularity as the industry’s first ever, external FireWire 400/USB 2.0 single-drive solution that also integrates three USB 2.0 and two FireWire powered ports. The NewerTech storage solution was named Accessory of the Year by 123 Macmini, Top Product by MacWorld, and Editor’s Choice by MacAddict. With newly enhanced, almost silent operation enhancements, the NewerTech miniStack V2 has been named one of the Top 10 holiday gifts for 2006 by 123Macmini.

The miniStack V2 accomplishes new ultra quiet operation with a construction process that incorporates a passive heat sink that radiates heat away from the hard drive. The extra large aluminum heat sink directly contacts the drive on both the top and side to disperse the maximum amount of heat. An intelligent cooling system initiates
an ultra-quiet protective fan only as a precautionary measure, providing the perfect balance between ultimate data security and quiet operation.

NewerTech miniStack V2 storage solutions are manufactured with only the latest, best quality hard drive mechanisms. All models 160GB or higher up to 750GB feature the latest Seagate 5yr Warranty Barracuda
7200.9 and 7200.10 mechanisms. The 80GB model features the latest 3yr warranted Hitachi hard disk mechanism.

With a profile of only 6.5″ W x 6.5″ L by 1.5″ H, the NewerTech miniStack is certified to meet the demands of high-capacity Audio/Video, Backup, Movies, Music, and Photography. The miniStack V2
