If you’ve heard of Brando (and you probably haven’t), you know that they often create wacky products that few would genuinely find useful (I’m looking at you, USB dock/thermometer). But, it looks like they’ve finally struck some gold with the SATA HDD Dock Station Combo Stereo Speaker + Hub.
The Dock Station is a (you guessed it) dock that features compatibility for 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA drives, as well as space for up to two USB 2.0 devices. It also has USB audio, three-watt speakers and volume control right on the surface. And, while the speakers may not blow away of the audiophiles in the audience, it is a nice multitasker that can help assist a laptop user’s music experience, as well as provide a healthy dose of external storage.
If you’re looking to snag one of these, you can get it off of Brando’s site for $59.
