“SuperSpeed” USB 3.0 isn’t expected to make a mark on shipping devices until next year, but that hasn’t stopped Active Media from unveiling their latest range of external SSDs.  As you might imagine, the Active Media Aviator 312 line each supports USB 3.0 connectivity, as well as offering 16, 32 or 64GB of high-speed storage space.
