OCZ Announces Throttle eSATA Drive
OCZ Technology Introduces the Throttle eSATA Drive, Offering Enthusiasts Blazing Performance over Traditional USB Flash Storage
Re: OCZ Announces Throttle eSATA Drive
Interesting item. Though I'd only be able to use this on machines I own. None of the machine at school or work have any accessible. eSATA needs to be the next USB, but I know it won't work that way.
Re: OCZ Announces Throttle eSATA Drive
It's why there's some form of USB connector on there too

Oh, snap, you're right. I mixed this up with another article I read yesterday. Very nice. It will probably be the next one I buy. Thanks for clarrifying.
Re: OCZ Announces Throttle eSATA Drive
I have been waiting for this for a while. I had no reason to have an e-sata port on my Mobo before.
