these things were always expensive when they first come out.

at the moment I'm pretty happy with my usb2/esata dock which i picked up for half the price from a known brand. really don't see much point for something like this for a while]]>Nov 19th 2009 8:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/Nov 19th 2009 7:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/Nov 19th 2009 8:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/Nov 19th 2009 8:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/Nov 19th 2009 8:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/

It look like there is a delay when you post a reply, now.]]>Nov 19th 2009 11:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/USB 3 sounds great for cameras, Flash drives etc. but SATA300 cannot even be maxed out by HDD speeds so why would you need USB 3.0 for a hard drive when we already have eSATA ?]]>Nov 19th 2009 11:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/
I would assume that its because USB 3.0 is backwards compatible 2.0 and also to demonstrate 3.0's new potential. But maybe I am thinking too optimistically.]]>Nov 19th 2009 12:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/Nov 19th 2009 2:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/Nov 20th 2009 4:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/19/sharkoon-sata-quickport-adds-usb-3-0-support-doesnt-forget-its/
I assume the obvious way to use this is for backup or imaging applications, e.g. where the hard drive that you plug in is only there temporarily. Or some oddball high security situation.]]>Nov 20th 2009 12:44PM
