I read some of the comments talking about thunderbolt, it sounds like a hint that owc is planning to create (or just stock someone else's) thunderbolt to USB 3 adapter. (I assume OWC Larry is an employee.)
I hope this rumored product is released soon. (Two thunderbolt ports to daisy chain, and one or more usb 3 outputs would be the best.) An adapter to usb 3.0 will be a great upgrade for the 2011 Mac owners.
