Buffalo adds Turbo USB to MiniStation / DriveStation external HDDs

Filed under: Storage

Lately, it’s been Buffalo’s NAS lineup getting all the attention, but today the firm is showing a little affection for its MiniStation and DriveStation. The MiniStation, which is available in capacities of 80GB, 120GB, 160GB, and a quarter-terabyte join the more capacious DriveStation (arriving with 320GB, 500GB, 750GB, and 1TB of space) in offering up the newfangled Turbo USB feature. Reportedly, this amenity “increases performance speed up to 60-percent faster than other USB hard drives on the market today,” and benefits Windows and OS X users alike. The MiniStation ranges from $99.99 to $219.99 and should be available by the end of the month, but the DriveStation won’t make its debut until early September when it rings up between $129.99 and $499.99.
