3.0 out of 5 stars Fast drive but troubled design, February 24, 2009

This review is from: Throttle 32 GB eSATA Flash Drive (Personal Computers)

This drive is very fast. It constantly got read rates in the 70 MB/sec Range and burst over 80 MB/sec. The issues I had was that if I used it with an unpowered eSATA port it requires power from the USB, this caused my system to repeatedly detect a USB device and then power up and down the USB, this caused the drive to vanish and then I would have to reboot. I could use it easily with a powered eSATA port. I also had trouble with the cap not staying on and the design has no lanyard hole to connect a lanyard to carry it with.

This review is from: Throttle 32 GB eSATA Flash Drive (Personal Computers)

Purchased it. Used it as much as I use my other usb drives (about 10min a day). Speed was greate, twice as fast as reguler usb drive. Drive failed under one month of usable. RMAed with OCZ, they sent a replacement in 8 weeks (unacceptable) with me calling them every week. Replacement drive failed 2 weeks later with very limited usage (will rma again).

5.0 out of 5 stars Really fast, large capacity, no documentation, August 17, 2009

This DoK is Really fast with large capacity, but - with hardly any documentation .
Buthering is the need to connect also USB (for power) when using eSATA,
(no documentation for the "powered eSATA") .
The eSATA port is >2X faster then the USB port in actual usage,
i.e. the device (unlike some other DoK) is able to use some of the additional bandwidth donated by the eSATA port.
