This portable kit includes essential accessories, making it the ultimate solution for secure, efficient forensic data acquisition. ## Description The T8u is the first Tableau Portable Family forensic bridge that supports write-blocked imaging of USB 3.0 devices through a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 host computer connection. T8u's powerful combination of a new, high-performing product architecture and USB 3.0 technology provide the speed you need to image USB 3.0 flash drives, multi-terabyte hard drives, or all USB 2.0/1.1 drives conforming to the mass storage "bulk-only" specification. Using controlled, real-world configurations and modern forensic imaging software, we've measured forensic data transfer with the T8u in excess of 300 MB/second (while simultaneously calculating MD5 and SHA-1 hashes). No other USB write-blocker can match the T8u's forensic performance and value. Review: Works great. Reasonable price. Review: Pricey but good way to protect usb devices. ## Features - Backlit Interface - Device status, device information, logical unit (LUN) select, and bridge information are easily accessible - Supports USB 1.0/2.0/3.0, Flash Drives, Mass Storage Drives, and any "bulk storage" drive - Kit Includes - TP2 Power Supply with US-Style power cord, TC-USB3 USB 3.0 (A to B) cable, 6 foot length, Soft-Sided bag and Quick Start Guide - Hardware-Based USB 3.0 Write Blocker ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00YDEM30O | | Additional Features | Lightweight | | Best Sellers Rank | #115,108 in Computers ( See Top 100 in Computers ) #7,612 in USB Cables | | Brand | Tableau | | Bullet Point | Backlit Interface - Device status, device information, logical unit (LUN) select, and bridge information are easily accessible, Hardware-Based USB 3.0 Write Blocker, Kit Includes - TP2 Power Supply with US-Style power cord, TC-USB3 USB 3.0 (A to B) cable, 6 foot length, Soft-Sided bag and Quick Start Guide, Supports USB 1.0/2.0/3.0, Flash Drives, Mass Storage Drives, and any "bulk storage" drive | | Color | black | | Compatible Devices | PC | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars (9) | | Flash Memory Type | USB | | Hardware Connectivity Technology | USB Type A | | Hardware Interface | USB 3.0 | | Item Weight | 1.95 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Tableau | | Mfr Part Number | LYSB00YDEM30O-ELECTRNCS | | Model Name | T8u Plus | | Model Number | LYSB00YDEM30O-ELECTRNCS | | Read Speed | 300 Megabytes Per Second | | Title | Tableau TK8u USB 3.0 Forensic Bridge Kit - T8u Plus Cable Kit | | UPC | 682858560303 682858560310 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Write Speed | 300.0 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Tableau - **Hardware interface:** USB 3.0 - **Reading speed:** 300 Megabytes Per Second - **Special features:** Lightweight - **Writing speed:** 300.0 ## Images ![Tableau TK8u USB 3.0 Forensic Bridge Kit - T8u Plus Cable Kit - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617VCwm59TL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can I use this to copy data from the source drive to the destination computer...or can I only image the source drive through this device?** A: This device must be used with a host computer. The suspect drive will be connected to the device and the T8u itself will be hooked to a computer via USB 3. The image will need to be stored on a drive that is attached to the computer. **Q: Will this device work properly when plugged into a usb 2.0 port on a pc?** A: Yes, a Tableau TK8U will work on a USB 2.0 Port but it will be slower. **Q: Can I recover dead drive with this? if not what do you recommend?** A: No, the Tableau TK8U does not recover data from a dead drive. **Q: What is the difference between the duplicator,block-writer and the bridge , is it a must to have all 3 in order to copy/image a hard drive ?** A: The Forensic Duplicators from Tableau such as the Tableau TX1, TD2u, and TD3 are stand-alone devices that can write-protect and image/clone a drive without any host side device such as a laptop/computer. The Forensic Bridges such as the T8u require use of a laptop/desktop and imaging software to make an image of a suspect drive. All Bridges/duplicators from Tableau are write-protected on the suspect/source side unless otherwise specified. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***R on 21 November 2017* Works great.
