It may not be the first USB 3.0 hard drive, but Active Media’s new Aviator 312 external SSD does look to be the fastest one around at the moment– assuming it actually lives up to the company’s claims, that is. The biggest of those are read speeds “up to” a blazing 240MB/s and write speeds up to 160MB/s — both, of course, made possible through the magic of USB 3.0, which also just so happens to let the drive be an external one, and be powered solely by USB. Of course, there are also a few not insignificant trade-offs, the most notable being that the drive is limited to just 16GB, 32GB and 64GB models, which unsurprisingly demand more than their capacities would suggest, running $89, $119, and $209, respectively.
