Fourth Generation DriveDock Series for Bare Drive Access

New Fourth Generation DriveDock Series adds new features for easy access to
bare drives

WICHITA, KS - May 8, 2006 -- WiebeTech has released the Fourth Generation
of its popular DriveDock series. In addition to its attractive new color,
the new series features the latest high performance FireWire bridges and
adds multiple powering options and new LED indicators.

"We're pleased to introduce these new DriveDocks to the marketplace," said
James Wiebe, president and CEO of WiebeTech LLC. "These new features will
be immensely valuable when troubleshooting a drive and will make a
technician's work and analysis much easier."

The DriveDock v4 series is a perfect solution for anyone who wants highest
speed FireWire transfer rates and access to bare 2.5" notebook, 3.5" IDE or
SATA drives. The Docks feature high performance Oxford Semiconductor
bridges: 922, 911+ or 924. Dual FireWire ports allow daisy-chaining for
more versatility. A USB port is also included.

Multiple power options are available via a +12V adapter (included) or via a
standard disk drive 4-pin molex power source.

Generation 4 LED indicators include: FireWire attached, USB attached, +12V
input jack active, disk drive power input jack active and +5V/+12V out
operational. An on/off switch provides for safe drive power up and power
down.

Using it is easy. Connect the drive to the Dock, plug in power and attach a
FireWire or USB cable to a host computer. For more protection to the drive,
a mounting plate can be attached to the dock to protect the drive's
circuitry.

The DriveDock v4 Series is built from aluminum for durability.

Four versions are available:
