So while this won't FULLY utilize my poor SATA port it will certainly go much further then a flash drive If you read the article it states that this isn't flash memory, it's a Solid State Drive (SSD), which can reach significantly higher speeds (Samsung just released one that does 200 MB/s).

The bottleneck on flash drives is the memory itself, not the USB2.0 throughput. USB2.0 throughput is 60MB/s. But you are lucky to find a flash drive that can read at better than 35MB/s. Using a connection with faster throughput does not improve the speed of the memory chips. I call bullshit. The bottleneck on flash drives is the memory itself, not the USB2.0 throughput.
