00:00:07.279 --> 00:00:14.719
so today I'll be unboxing a bit of a relic now while this product is not that

00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:17.039
old it is still a bit of a rarity

00:00:14.719 --> 00:00:23.279
because not very many people bought them this is the OC Eno this is a USB 3

00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:28.320
Portable solid state drive this was first shown at CES 2010 and check this

00:00:26.679 --> 00:00:34.120
out check this out this is how long this unit has been sitting in our warehouse

00:00:31.560 --> 00:00:41.520
see the dust on my finger yeah disgusting okay so this is

00:00:38.120 --> 00:00:43.320
the 128 gig version and what ocz was

00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:51.800
attempting to accomplish with this particular product was a way for users

00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:55.000
to have a portable USB flash drive that

00:00:51.800 --> 00:00:57.920
is as durable as a USB flash drive but

00:00:55.000 --> 00:01:02.680
offers a much larger amount of storage so when this drive was released the

00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:08.880
biggest USB drives were in the 32 gig range so while the size of this device

00:01:05.479 --> 00:01:10.119
is larger than a USB drive the speed is

00:01:08.880 --> 00:01:14.400
vastly superior okay it offers uh read and

00:01:12.600 --> 00:01:18.479
write speeds up to I guess hopefully it'll tell us at some point because I

00:01:15.720 --> 00:01:24.520
don't actually know um but dramatically Superior speeds and larger capacity but

00:01:22.360 --> 00:01:28.640
the drawback is that it is also significantly larger than a USB flash

00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:31.920
drive so here I'm going to show you guys the Eno

00:01:31.960 --> 00:01:39.040
here it is so this uses a 1.8 in satat

00:01:35.960 --> 00:01:43.200
two drive this is an indel linkx drive

00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:45.320
inside a very slick aluminum enclosure

00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:50.200
so this is a very classy looking product it's got a custom interface on the back

00:01:47.399 --> 00:01:54.360
so that is a USB 3 interface that is somehow I guess adapted for SATA power

00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:59.399
and data let's let's have a look at the cable that's included and see just what

00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:04.240
kind of fancy schmancy cable we're dealing with here because I've never

00:02:01.039 --> 00:02:05.920
seen this cable before here we go oh

00:02:04.240 --> 00:02:10.160
okay okay okay no the reason I'm not familiar with this is just cuz I haven't

00:02:07.360 --> 00:02:16.920
used much usb3 stuff this is just a USB 3 mini cable there you go so micro USB 3

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:22.920
is what they're calling this and that is B so uh that's super speed usb3 so

00:02:19.519 --> 00:02:24.319
remember USB 3 is up to 10 times the

00:02:22.920 --> 00:02:29.959
speed of usb2 all right it comes with a nice high

00:02:26.640 --> 00:02:31.480
quality uh very flexible cable here us

00:02:29.959 --> 00:02:36.280
B3 connector on the one end and then we've got the micro connector on the

00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:39.200
other end and then um actually hold on give me two

00:02:37.239 --> 00:02:42.000
seconds so I just had to create a partition on the drive so I'm going to

00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:46.599
go ahead and take my benchmarking and driver's folders uh which total about 5

00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:53.080
gigs I'm going to copy them over to local dis y bam so fast okay that was

00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:58.280
just the the burst at the beginning so the actual sustain transfer speeds that

00:02:54.720 --> 00:03:00.519
we can get out of this are around 130 to

00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:05.560
is megabytes per second very very respectable so we're pretty

00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:09.319
much uh up there at the limits for uh

00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:11.280
USB 3 uh that's about oh yeah cameraman

00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:18.159
was zoomed in too far that's why it was blurry um yeah so that's pretty much all

00:03:14.959 --> 00:03:20.239
I have to say about that very fast um

00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:23.840
not a lot of people bought them but you know it was pretty expensive at the time

00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:28.560
I think the 128 gig Drive upon release was in the $400 to $500 range so thank
