Agentless Backup is Not a Myth

Samsung has upgraded its Story Station series of external desktop hard drives with SuperSpeed USB 3.0 connectivity.

Samsung Story

The Story Station 3.0 - you can review Reg Hardware's review of the USB 2.0 version here - comes in 1TB and 2TB versions and will go on sale late this month and early May.

USB 3.0 offers ten times the bandwidth of USB 2.0, making for a significant speed boost for transferring big files.

Samsung didn't say how much the new drives will cost. ®
