- The Razer Thunderbolt 5 coupling station fuses the expansion of the port and SSD storage in a compact unit
- With Thunderbolt Share, the Dockk enables rapid file transfers between PC without using a network
- Handles three 4k to 120Hz monitors through a single connection
Razer has launched a new accessory based on the last Thunderbolt standard, designed to increase data transfer speed, graphics performance and connectivity for users who want more of their current configuration.
The Razer Thunderbolt 5 coupling station admits data speeds of up to 120 GB/Sy leads up to three 4k to 120Hz screens, offering considerable bandwidth for external monitors and peripherals.
A notable feature of this device is its integrated SSD storage, up to 8TB, allowing the dock to function not only as a center but also as a high -speed external unit. Also consolidated eleven ports in a single unit, reducing cable disorder while providing flexibility for demanding workflows
High speed storage meets the expansion of the port
The design includes Thunderbolt Share, which allows rapid file transfers and control between systems.
This could attract users who work on multiple PCs or want to download projects quickly without involving a network.
The base version of the spring is priced at $ 299.99, but integrated storage models increase significantly, with the high -end 8TB configuration at a price of $ 999.99.
If that cost is justified, it depends on how much users value the combination of a high -speed SSD and a next -generation connectivity center in a unit.
Razer says that the new spring addresses pain points around high refreshment screens, rapid movement of the file and the expansion of the system, all without the need for a complete desk.
“The Razer Thunderbolt 5 spring is designed to satisfy the growing need for faster data transfer and a robust multiple visualization support,” said Travis Furst, head of notebooks and accessories in Razer.
“With the Razer Core X V2, we are extending that experience: offering an increase in high performance external graphics that brings desk graphics to laptops. Thanks to the support of the latest NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards, it is an update without problems that can transform the ultra-sfin thundolt that enabled laptops in the creative work stations or games.”
Although the product is marketed for professionals and creators of content, the high price and niche characteristics can limit its appeal.
The real test will be if users find the SSD expansion and port density convincing enough to replace multiple discrete accessories.
In addition, Razer also introduced the Core X V2, a Thunderbolt 5 external GPU cabinet that admits full length pcie graphics cards.
Designed for use with laptops and hand hand, Core X V2 is priced at $ 499.99 and includes fans control and 140 W laptop load.
It serves a different but complementary audience, those who need desktop class graphics in a modular housing.
