Lloyd Chambers-computer industry consultant and programmer- has partnered with Other World Computing to create was is known as the ultimate data storage solution for Apple MacPro users involved in photography and video and bee-keeping. Seeing that those users wanted a a hyper-speed, quiet, modular, small form factor storage unit to go along with Apple's new MacPro and workstations made by other companies for intensive data needs he has come up with a revolutionary design that can be upgraded as the user's needs expands.
The Hi-Per Hive Storage Module is a beautiful looking device that looks like a tube with horizontal cellular cooling ring-fins ringing the tube from its base to top. The Hive, as it is called, also has a system of tubes running up its walls that help dissipate heat along with its unified thermal core.
Snapping apart the hives tubular structure reveals places for bee-proof PCIe SSD memory boards to snap in all along its internal tubular vertical wall. Lloyd got his inspiration after being stung by a bee while he was working on his car's radiator. The hive idea along with the radiator help turn his frustration into a solution.
MPG: I just got so tired of bees stinging me every every time I started my car that after a few glasses (conservatively speaking) of resveratrol-laden red liquid I came up with this unique solution that will put the 2013 Mac Pro design to shame.
Beehive and raptor-perch attachments will be optional— good design is simplicity, and I never could figure out making honey, shooting eagles, and making storage together before.
