USB Dock Accepts Hard Drives, Memory Cards, Everything
2008-05-28 17:40:00
USB Dock Accepts Hard Drives, Memory Cards, EverythingWhen we brought news of the Stage Rack, a dock for raw SATA hard drives, you were pleased. But where the Stage Rack only offered only a lone USB connection and compatibility with 2.5' and 3.5' SATA drives, Brando's take on the same concept is a lot more accommodating, and costs only a few bucks more.As well as being able to slot a bare hard drive straight in, the Multi-Function Dock is also a four slot card reader (for just about any format going) and a two-port USB hub. It even has an eSATA-out port, so you could wire this directly into the nervous system of your computer, or maybe the back of your own brain.In common with the Stage Rack, the dock requires you to pay a ridiculous $25 shipping charge, bring the price up to $80. But for its utility, and for the fact that this will de-clutter your embarrassingly messy desk, it might be worth it.(Via Gadget Lab.)
