According to Jerry Thomson, vice president of sales at Active Media Products, “These products effectively render external USB 2.0 hard drives obsolete since for a few dollars more you can plug a 2.5-inch hard drive into the Aviator-2 case and get up to 200% faster performance. Or the Aviator-2 bundled with our Predator SSD inside will blow away any hard drive with speeds above 150MB/sec”. Aviator-2 SSDs are available now through Amazon.
