I picked up a USB/Firewire 800 enclosure for the upgraded hard drive on my MBP.  Firewire 800...Good god that thing is fast.  Something needs to replace USB, and replace it soon.  <br><br>PS-  And eSATA and express card doesn't cut it.  Just like PC Cards aren't designed to replace USB.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John Doe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 1:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on TrekStor intros 1TB external hard drive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/trekstor-intros-1tb-external-hard-drive/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/trekstor-intros-1tb-external-hard-drive/</guid><description><![CDATA[The thing looks like an electric rat trap.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chuckles McGee]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 1:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on TrekStor intros 1TB external hard drive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/trekstor-intros-1tb-external-hard-drive/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/trekstor-intros-1tb-external-hard-drive/</guid><description><![CDATA[Great, 2 hard drives showing up as 1.  That would be RAID-0 then, wouldn't it?  Fanastic, no added speed (as you are bound by the USB interface if going that way) and double the risk of data loss through hard drive failure, I think I may just pass.<br><br>Now, if they did a RAID-1 model with 2 500 GB disks I would snap one up in an instant.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Phil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 8:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on TrekStor intros 1TB external hard drive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/trekstor-intros-1tb-external-hard-drive/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/trekstor-intros-1tb-external-hard-drive/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree, I am saving for a drobo instead.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brad]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 8:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on TrekStor intros 1TB external hard drive]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/trekstor-intros-1tb-external-hard-drive/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/16/trekstor-intros-1tb-external-hard-drive/</guid><description><![CDATA[First thing I thought of.
