now for performance test. i'm using my pc that is :

• DFI RS482 Socket 939
• AMD Athlon64 3000+ @stock
• Kingston PC3200 512MB x2 shared to VGA 128MB
• Western Digital 250GB PATA
  
• Windows XP Media Centre Edition
• HD Tach 3.0.1.0
• Total Copy 1.1
  

the method i'm using was :

• HD Tach : running only hd tach & start testing.
  
• Total Copy : copying 470MB file from hardisk to the octopus for write speed testing & copy it back to hardisk for read speed test
• ---will add this later

my conclusion:
Positive :

• unique design
• full rubber body. don't know its water resist or not, but the rubber provide shock protection
  
• fast enough write speed (for me)
• fast reading speed

Negative:

• no strap included
• well..coz it's design, the overall unit was very large...
• the design make warranty label difficult to place. (yeah...we need it when warranty claim)

thats all for tonight, tommorrow i'll try testing using FMT.
