Under början av 2000-talet var Chaintech en respekterad moderkortstillverkare på entusiastmarknaden men likt många mindre aktörer har man under åren fått kasta in handduken för sin moderkortssatsning. Chaintech lever dock kvar som en mer specialicerad minnestillverkare och nu har man lanserat en ny APOGEE-enhet som är ett eSATA-utrustad lagringsminne. APOGEE Pronto har en maximal kapacitet av 64GB och kan genom eSATA-gränssnittet nå överföringshastigheter på 90MB/s resp. 50MB/s (Läs/skriv). Enheten har även en USB2.0 port för full kompabilitet, priser är ännu inte avslöjade.

Walton Chaintech Announces APOGEE Pronto eSATA Drive
Reacting to users demands for portable, high speed storage, Walton Chaintech has announced its new APOGEE Pronto eSATA drive. Modeled after APOGEE’s award-winning SSD design, the Pronto uses the eSATA port instead of the USB 2.0 port for its file transfers. This product specifically targets users who require better performance and capacities than conventional flash pen drives but do not require speeds to run software and operating systems like SSDs.
The APOGEE Pronto eSATA has dualistic connectors, supporting both the eSATA and USB ports. This flexibility allows users to use the Pronto as a simple high capacity storage device, while also supporting read/write speeds of 90/50MB/s respectively, about three times faster than conventional flash pen drives. Available in 32G and 64G capacities, the Pronto supports users to store a multitude of different file types, from multimedia to office documents or any combination of both.
If users are looking for a product that holds more information, has faster data transfer speeds than conventional USB flash drives, look no further than the APOGSS Pronto eSATA drive.
