Digital camera reviews of Antec MX-100 3.5-Inch USB Aluminum Enclosure for SATA Hard Drive

Digital camera Review: Excellent external enclosure
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an excellent product for the price! You definitely want to buy this, especially if you have a big hard disk (like 1.5 TB Seagate drive in my case).

Hooking up the whole thing barely took 10 minutes. A couple of screws wouldn't fit correctly, but that's a minor thing considering it has nothing to do with the usage.

The drive was recognized immediately without any issues on my Vista as well as Linux machine, which shows the support they claim isn't a farce.

I'll summarize the pros and cons for easy reading:

Pros:
- Supports high capacity drives unlike most USB enclosures out there
- Lightweight
- No noise as there is no fan
- Excellent finish
- Cheap
- Very cool white status / power light

Cons:
- None really except that a couple of screws didn't fit in straight away

Overall I would rate this as a very good buy and would definitely buy again!
