    I am looking for a external thunderbolt SSD solution for a second boot disk. Right now I have a samsung EVO in a segate golfer dock and I get about 350 read 390 write. Is there any better case out there for a single drive?

    Frankly, you'll get equivalent speeds if you use a USB3 enclosure as your external storage.
    Cheaper, too.

    Using USB3, I get reads of 431 and writes of 273 using my IBM 530 series SSD. I sense the write speeds are a bit limited by the drive's size (240gb).
