Every second matters—Don't waste your life on slow digital technology
The Wind Top AE series is equipped with high-speed USB 3.0 technology, which provides a transmission speed of 5Gbps that is ten times that of the USB 2.0. With the USB 3.0, it is possible to transfer 520MB of data from a 3.5" hard drive in only 1 minute and 41 seconds. Using a USB 2.0, the same transfer would take around 4 minutes. Compared with e-SATA, the USB 3.0 can perform at more than double the speed, making it the fastest transmission interface available on the market today. With the USB 3.0, the Wind Top AE series allows users to enjoy faster transfer of HD data, such as movies and videos as well as data in other large-sized formats, making life more efficient, convenient, and most importantly, saves you time. Furthermore, the MSI Wind Top AE series is hooked up with Super Charger technology, enabling devices to be charged through one of its USB 3.0 ports even when the computer is turned off, saving money on the electric bill and preserving your computer battery. Charging time is also 40% less. Do we have your attention yet?
