Abstract: There's no shortage of hard drives out there on the market, but that number shrinks significantly when you start looking for drives with specific features. G-Technology's is a contender with attributes that you usually don't find in a storage system: ...
fast performance, versatile RAID enclosure with two fast laptopsize portable drives
currently limited to 1 TB hard disks, no sync software included to mirror drives without RAID
We found the G-Technology G-DOCK ev easy to use, and the performance was as good or better than you can expect from laptop disks, assisted by higher 7200rpm spindle speeds. Using the G-DOCK ev enclosure's Thunderbolt connection or the individual drives' U...

RAID formats support, eject a disk and replace with another, dual Thunderbolt ports
Not so sure about the rough finish.
Designed with media professionals and enthusiastic hobbyists in mind, the G-Dock is like a next-generation ZIP drive. It combines portability and storage capacity in one gorgeous, high performance box. And with dual Thunderbolt connectivity, you won't los...
We really, really want to love the G-Dock ev; unfortunately, it's hobbled by its limitations, and the sacrifices you'll make (no matter what setup you choose) are a little too much for its $750 price tag. Perhaps the upcoming “plus” versions of the USB 3....

Convenient hard drive cartridge system. Drives have SATA and USB 3.0 ports. RAID 0,1 capable. Pass-through Thunderbolt port. Three-year warranty.
RAID is plain Apple software RAID, not hardware RAID. SATA doors are easy to lose
Performance hard drives are a niche product, and the G-Technology G-Dock ev with Thunderbolt is no exception. This one is tailor made for the video or production house that services more than a handful of artists with an eye on improving workflows in the...

Nice design and construction, Removable drives an be used as portable drives, Thunderbolt cable included
Hard drive speeds hinder Thunderbolt performance, Can't use drives as portable devices if configured as RAID 0 or RAID 1 in dock
The G-Dock ev is a decent option for someone looking for extra storage space and portability, rather than performance and speed. The G-Dock's design is attractive, and the ability to use the drives apart from the G-Dock ev as standalones, when not stripe...
