Thread: A new external USB 3.0 from Active Media

The U.S. Active Media launches new flash disk external operator interface SuperSpeed USB...

Active Media had launched its first SSD with USB 3.0 in October. The U.S. firm announced today its Aviator 2, a revised and corrected, which pushes the maximum available capacity to 128GB under the hood, found a Predator X7, that is to say a DSS operator JMicron controller JMF612. The sequential speeds are 230MB / s read and 160MB / s (64GB) or 120 Mb / s (128 GB) in writing. Usually the larger versions are more efficient and here is the reverse. Perhaps Active Media uses less powerful chips for 128 GB version, which would explain the drop in rates.

The Aviator 2 hull measuring 135 x 84 x 15 mm. It is available only to $ 35 (31 € TTC), while with the SSD, it takes $ 260 (226 € TTC) in 64-GB and $ 450 (391 € TTC) version This is a 128GB interesting solution since you can use your exact hard drive or SSD in the external enclosure or outside as it is sold alone or with DSS.
