This review is from : Vantec USA NexStar 2.5-Inch to 3.5-Inch SATA to USB 2.0/eSATA/1394a/1394b Hard Drive Dock (NST-D100FBSU)
Works with 3TB Drives but read on . I could not use a Hitachi 3TB drive with this unit, showed up as 800GB. 2TB works fine. 3TB worked with the MacAlly external unit on firewire. This is on a 2008 Mac Pro. Amazon and Product site says max 3TB. User manual says max 2TB. It appears that there are some units out there with old firmware that only work up to 2TB.10/19/2001: Contacted Vantec, and they said they will send updated unit. If you use these with 3TB drives and are willing to go thru the hassle, this is the best 1394b Dock that I could find. That , and the fact that Vantec came thru is why the 5 stars.Update 10/21/2011:Replacement units arrived from Vantec(yes , I bought a second one) and they work like a charm with 3TB drives. Great product. Amazon says more units on order, so by the time you buy this unit, the problem is probably solved.
