Pros: Nice laptop-style keys on a full-size keyboard. Standard layout, nice design and looks.

Cons: D and H keys began sticking within hours of usage. Had to pop them off and back on to repair, which is harder on a laptop-style key.

Overall Review: Nice and thin.

Pros: It looks like, and generally keeps my hardware cool.

Cons: The aesthetics of the doored design do not outweigh the hassle of having to open the door in close quarters to access anything in the external drive bays. The hinge feels flimsy. The case uses a rails/cage system for mounting hard drives. I lost a couple of the rails, and bought a couple more HDDs for a RAID setup. I contacted the manufacturer to see if it was possible to receive new rails, but they refused to help.

Overall Review: A case is supposed to look nice, and offer functional benefits. This case looks nice, but the door annoys me, and the rail system is pointless, unless you plan on swapping out HDDs every day you own this case. I can't really give an expert opinion on the cooling of the case.

Pros: Sleek

Cons: Stand is attached to main case body, no fan, failed after two weeks

Overall Review: The enclosure itself failed after two weeks, possibly from overheating. The drive itself is fine, and works with other IDE-to-USB converters. Does not work with other known-good IDE drives in Windows or Linux; does not appear at all in Window's device manager or in dmesg under Linux.

Pros: Does run at 1200Mhz

Cons: Some MoBo's detect as 800, one module failed after a week.

Overall Review: Heat spreader useless and just for show?
