In this review of the Thermaltake BlacX 5G ST0019U SATA HDD Docking Station, we look at the differences in access speed between a StarTech PEXUSB3S2 PCI-e USB 3.0 controller card and an Intel ICH10 USB 2.0 Controller.

What does USB 3.0 do for hard drive access speeds? USB 3.0 vs USB 2.0, who will ultimately win the battle using a Western Digital SATA 6Gb/s hard drive? Read On To Find Out!

As always, thanks for letting me share my work with the rest of the SETI.USA team. I am discovering the truth about a lot of hardware, like USB 3.0 technology speeds, that I know some of you may need. :-B
