Beauty Lies In A Hard Drive
Apple kinda kick-started the revolution behind gorgeous looking computers and peripherals and it’s fitting to find new-age designers striving to keep pace. The Octave is an artistically beautiful hard drive that incorporates a simple shape and airy architecture – digital information encapsulated in elegance.
It features a thin black anodized aluminum grid to increase ventilation. The polished perforated aluminum plate keeps this high-capacity drive silent and cool. A lacquered white coat, slip resistant rubber pads and a power button round out the specs. A blue LED indicates read/write status and a white LED indicates the Octave is running.
For those who require two Octave hard disks, they can be assembled vertically, with a base designed specially for this purpose.

I really like it – I was just thinking out loud – what about air flow when the 2 octaves are standing vertically – the stand in the bottom cuts off for cool air to be sucked in – maybe the stand should be lifted up a bit – to allow air to flow in? Just a suggestion.
