Hi,
Not sure about the heavier deal but they do make gold tipped cables too for usb3

Without looking it up, I'm still pretty sure 3.0 would be faster than the drive anyway.
Hi,
Indeed the spec's do not show if there is a 5400 or 7200rpm hdd inside it :)

Hi,
No hdmi gold are indeed high speed and a lot better :)
usb3 no telling like already said the speed will be in the hard drive in the enclosure mostly
Pretty much why I never consider devises like you have because it comes with a hdd in it and can not be changed out
I sort of stick with empty enclosures and add the hdd I want to use mostly 7200rpm hdd's.
Going by my memory a hard drive can't saturate the speeds of USB 2.0 let along USB 3.0.
The read/wright speed of hard drives is to slow.
I did a lot of research long time ago, when I was thinking on buying my first SSD.
I just don't remember where I found all the data from my research.
I gave all but one of my hard drives away a long time ago, after getting hooked on SSD's.
USB 3.0 cables have extra wires & they are designed to carry extra current as well. This website might help explain it.
