The Buffalo MiniStation Plus USB 3.0 external hard drive, which the company announced last month, is now shipping. Housed inside a shockproof chassis, the USB 3.0-enabled MiniStation Plus is currently available in two capacities and three colors. Hit the jump to know more about Buffalo’s latest portable storage solution.
The company is offering the MiniStation Plus in 500GB ($84.99) and 1TB ($119.99) capacities, with both versions available in black, silver and red. In a press release, the Austin,Texas-based company with a bovine name reminded everyone that USB 3.0 is capable of data transfer speeds of up to 5Gbps. The drive, which features 256-bit AES hardware encryption, is preformatted to work with both Windows and Mac machines.

Kinda annoys me when makers quote the bus speed rather than the device's actual transfer rates. If a car's top speed was rated at 'the speed of light' because that was the theoretical maximum, would you buy it? :p
