The heat-up time for the Pro 600 ranges from 15 to 30 minutes, while the Drive offers a faster heat-up time of 5 to 15 minutes. Both machines have the same brew boiler capacity of 0.75 liters, a steam boiler capacity of 2 liters, and a water reservoir capacity of 3 liters; however, the Drive has a rotary pump while the Pro 600 features a vibration pump.
