Most Favorable Review

Tough enough for war

VANTEC NexStar NST-350U2 Aluminum Alloy 3.5" IDE USB 2.0 External Enclosure

Pros: Aluminum case was tough, and shed heat well. Both are essential qualities in Iraq.

Cons: Bit tough to put together when all you've got is a leatherman and a pen-light, but still do-able

Overall Review: Slightly big for compact carry, I shoulda bought the smaller red or blue. But this takes a beating and keeps working. Ive bought several more, just because they hold up well in combat conditions

No complaints

Pros: easy to work with, no need to format, just dropped in case as an external, and started overworking it immediately. It kept up nicely.

Cons: Little bigger than I expected, but thats more my fault.

Overall Review: Shoulda bought a bigger HD. I forgot how fast I can fill one.
