FireWire Depot today introduced the CalDigit ExpressCard/34 eSATA card (US$119.95) for MacBook Pro 15″ or 17″ with an ExpressCard/54 or ExpressCard/34 expansion slot. “The ExpressCard allows for portable performance in the field, enabling you to capture, develop, edit and create content in almost any environment when using Apple’s new MacBook Pro notebook computers. With transfer rates up to 3 gigabit per second, this is your portable card for editing on the go. The CalDigit SATA Express 34 can typically achieve sustained disk write and read speeds of 100 and 110 MB/sec, respectively, which is about three times as fast as USB 2.0 or FireWire connections to the same drive setup.”
