news 28 Posted January 26, 2009 Everything USB is pleased to announce our Kanguru e-Flash eSATA + USB 16GB Flash Drive review. Kanguru Solutions has come out of nowhere with an innovative flash drive to give modern day computer users the added option of using a large capacity flash drive over both eSATA and USB connections to truly get their need for speed satisfied. With their first attempt can they succeed in manifesting a formidable foe to other USB flash drives by offering both the convenience and wide availability of USB and the pure performance offered by the relatively new eSATA interface without affecting the general experience? Read on to find out. http://www.everythingusb.com/kanguru-e-flash-esata-usb-flash-drive-15990.html Verdict: Kanguru's e-Flash drive offers a unique capability to connect via either eSATA or USB ports on modern day notebooks and desktops. Stellar performance via either connections allows users to maximize their effective use of the drive, but the drive's bulky and uninspired mechanical design and a relatively short warranty are a let-down on what could have been a killer product. The Good: + Fast performance over USB and eSATA + Power over eSATA extension cable and PCI expansion bracket included + HotSwap! application included The Bad: - Somewhat bulky - Aesthetically unappealing - No USB extension cable - Only 3 year warranty - Requires power over eSATA port Regards, Ian Chiu Managing Editor, Everything USB http://www.everythingusb.com/ Share this post Link to post
