Thermaltake changed the way we swap hard drives in 2008, when they introduced the original BlacX Docking Station.  They took it to the next level when they brought to us a dual drive configuration with the ability to read and write to two separate drives simultaneously with the BlacX Duet. The BlacX Duet also brought eSATA to the docks, giving us faster read and write speeds to the docked drives. Once more Thermaltake re-writes the dock design with newer technology that is designed to give us blazing fast transfer speeds - up to 5Gbps with the Thermaltake BlacX 5G. The BlacX 5G uses the new USB 3.0 interface found on newer motherboards and offers transfer speeds topping out at 5Gbps, which is a huge improvement over the limit of 480Mbps for USB 2.0, making USB 3.0 up to 10 times faster. The BlacX also supports Serial ATA drives with the new 3.0 specification which increases speeds up to 6Gbps, as well as SATA 2.0 and 1.0 drives. With the fast combination of the increased USB interface and the faster SATA 6Gbps drives this device is a force to be reckoned with. Now that I have you intrigued, let's tear it open and start looking at the dock in its glory.
