Both the new MacBook Pro and iMac right now present you with entry to a realm of high-speed peripheral devices and high-resolution displays together with one compact port. That’s because Thunderbolt is based on 2 standard technologies: PCI Express together with DisplayPort.

There will soon be a range of new Thunderbolt External Hard Drives hitting the market. All of which will be featured on this page as soon as they are in stock. This is exciting times and this really does blow USB 3.0 out of the water. Thunderbolt will be able to deliver theorectical speeds of up to 10Gb per scound - this is 2 times the speed of USB 3.0 and 20 times that of USB 2.0.

Thunderbolt is a brand new high-speed cable systems which in turn connects computers and also electronic devices suchm as external hard drives together like never before.
