  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Is there any thing like this G Tech out there?

I just saw this EV drive system from G Tech, super nice set up with each drive having USB 3 and the slots as well for moving drives around. My question as Im new to the whole hard-drive thing is, is there any thing else like this system. Im looking for an all USB 3 system this is only Thunderbolt. Sorry if there a thread already, Im just tired of buying the 2tb sea gates, I need to get into a system that I can slot what I need then place away and what not.

Something like this maybe:

That's for a tower rather than an external system, but obviously you buy your own 2.5in drives, put them in the compatible enclosure then they function as sata drives in your tower or USB3 drives otherwise. Kind of similar. The G-Dock does have the advantage that you can put two drives in at once of course, but then of course you're maybe looking at something like this:

Though that just takes standard sata drives. The G-Dock still has an edge because your can put the drives in Raid 0 or 1, though I'm not sure I can see much use for that in a system designed for hot swapping, but maybe I'm just unimaginative!

That's just off the top of my head because I'm been looking for usb3 docks too...
