[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 380660, member: 24160"] Don't get me wrong here, don't know you, and you may be a swell guy, and we'd probably get along real nice and you have offered discounts to the members here which is great, but if you want to hype your stuff, you should keep it to the buy/sell/trade threads. Hijacking any other threads for your sales pitches are not what most support forums are about. But then maybe I'm the only one who feels that way. And for those that don't want to look it up, just prior to those ...... in his quote above is this "What’s that? How does it stack up against the competition? Ok fair question, and rather than let y’all do your own research, Uncle Mike here has done some of it for you........" You were implying that you had saved us from doing the research. Yeah, you had to do some research alright, to find a drive that was more expensive than yours. Sounds like all the other salespeople. And you didn't even compare it to another triple interface drive, but a superior eSATA interface. That's no different than if I were to try to compare a $200 cheaper USB device to your triple interface device. As to whether the additional firewire ports are useful, guess that depends on whether someone needs firewire or they prefer to upgrade their system to eSATA or not. Attached benchmarks of eSATA and FW800 attached to a G5 dual 2.0Ghz. Have seen others but these are typical and I knew where to find them.
