Plextor have a 500GB portable hard drive that can be connected via eSATA for quicker transfer speeds.

If you are looking for a small, quiet, NAS device that takes 2.5” hard drives, then take a look at the Synology DiskStation DS409slim.

Active Media have just released an eSATA and USB SSD Flash Drive delivering extremely fast read and write speeds.

If you have a need to connect some SATA disks to your computer externally, you might want to consider using a drive enclosure. The Sans Digital MobileSTOR MS2UT 2 bay drive enclosure also provides a RAID solution if you want to protect the data on your drives.

Coming only a few days after the launch of the DiskStation DS410, Synology have announced the launch of the DX510 expansion solution for use with the DS1010+ and the DS710+.

Yesterday LaCie announced the Rugged eSATA, which is the first mobile external hard drive on the market that features a Power eSATA interface.

This week saw the release of a new Windows Home Server Add-In called Home Server SMART from Dojo North Software. What this add-in does is monitor the health of your hard drives in your Windows Home Server.

So the HP MediaSmart Server EX485 and EX487 Windows Home Server has been available now since January 2009, and is the “follow up” to the hugely successful EX470 and EX475 models. I have been using the EX487 as my main production WHS for a few months now and figured it was about time to post the review.
