You knew it wouldn't be long before Seagate (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Seagate/) hopped on the USB 3.0 (http://www.engadget.com/tag/USB30/) bandwagon, right? Right. Here in Vegas, the company just announced its BlackArmor PS110, which is its first USB 3.0 portable HDD. What makes this one a touch different than the rest is the "performance kit" that it ships in, which is comprised of a 500GB USB 3.0 HDD (a 2.5-incher with a 7200RPM spindle speed), a power cable and an ExpressCard USB 3.0 adapter. 'Course, your shiny new MacBook won't take too kindly (http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/08/apple-announces-new-macbook-pro-at-wwdc-2009/) to this type of gesture -- but hey, at least you can read SD cards without breaking a sweat! The kit is up for purchase right now for $179.99, and if you're looking to take a closer look before pulling the trigger, you'll find our hands-on below along with a glance at a for-demonstration-only 7mm 2.5-inch drive (http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/08/seagates-7-mm-momentus-thin-2-5-inch-hard-disk-for-slim-high-c/) that was first announced last month.
