eSATA miracle !

Ok, almost everybody has an external HDD. And most of you tried moving data from external drive to PC and vice versa. Most of you wouldn't care about transfer speed - but some may do. Since 2004 a new interface appeared. Named e-SATA is the acronym for 'external SATA'. It's a relative new interface in industry - but what does it have to offer in addition to USB2 and firewire devices ? Well... Opposed to FireWire and USB/2 devices, eSATA talks STRAIGHT to the system where USB/2 and Firewire use a "bridge" to encode data of HDD to USB or Firewire format. That's introducing latency's and slower transfer speeds. eSATA is twice as fast as Firewire 400 and USB2, and is even faster than Firewire 800 !
So, if you want SPEED and PORTABILITY, you can use this external case in addition with any 2,5" SATA HDD. Use it combined with a large 2,5" HDD and will give you a BLAZING fast pocket sized storage of 500 GB !!!
