Shame about it not not having both eSATA and USB.
I can under stand them going with USB as very motherboard/laptop have then, but if they had the eSATA as well then, they would have been onto a winner.
Personally the design reminds me of the old NES and Sega Master System game slots.
Old school! Might have a SNES weekend now you mention it...
You can see the option of an eSATA connector on the picture of the PCB , just down from the USB connector.
They might release that version later , or you could just modify the case and add your own.
Never going to happen, but I immediately imagined software publishers putting their games on HDD you then slot into your dock. Sod blu-ray
Hmmm now all we need if for HDs to come in a protective plastic case for handling and it will look like we are back with 8-track cartridges.
I like the look of this device and will keep an eye out for an 'improved' version in the next few months.
How about a review of the Quickport Pro:
