In our opinion, Thermaltake has hit on a great external solution here. Hard drive prices are low, considering price per gigabyte. For our test we picked up a brand new 500GB Maxtor HDD for $89 shipped. For the amount of storage you get, you pick up a f...
Abstract: Normally we couldnt be less interested in external hard drive products. When you really get down to it, there isnt much to them, nor are there many differences between the various flavors on the market. All support the same mobile or desktop drive st...

As mentioned in the introduction, the BlacX USB Hard Drive Docking Station is such a simple, yet brilliant idea and I am surprised nobody else thought of this sooner. For those users who have multiple hard drives, both 2.5" and 3.5", and dont want to ...
