Pros: simple design, multi platform
Cons: no fan, little hot

punya hdd 200gb udah gak muat lagi kalo taro dalem casing... koneksi ide udah habis.. akhirnya solusi akhir yah pake enclosure... sedikit hunting nemu 2 merek yg harganya value i-tec & sohousb. akhirnya dipilih soho usb yg desain-nya lebih minimalis... dengan bodi almunium...

sebenernya pilihan ada 2 macam, usb + automatic backup & usb + firewire... saya pribadi pilih yg ada koneksi firewire karena punya 2 koneksi 1394 di komp tapi gak kepake (onboard+audigy) daripada ngabisin usb akhirnya pake yg firewire

untuk ukuran casing sejenis yg menggunakan firewire, case ini termasuk murah... ada fitur indikasi sisa kapasitas hdd, selain itu mengunakan adaptor standar, bukan aux adaptor, jadi kalo ada problem lebih mudah cari adaptor pengganti.. kelemahan produk ini adalah apabila hdd termasuk kategori panas akan menyebabkan body ikut panas... berbeda dengan case yg saya beli sebelumnya menggunakan body plastik.. case tidak terasa panas...

Pros: Body full aluminium, indikator hardisk, menyalurkan panas dengan baik, koneksi bisa usb & firewire
Cons: no fan

sama kyak andhee, g dah ga punya ide kosong buat HD, dan SATA sangat terpengaruh oc fsb, jadi g putuskan ambil enclosure ini.. bentuknya cantik dengan multi warna (silver,merah,biru,item) g pilih yang hitam dengan body anti gores.. dudukannya mantap dan tidak goyang. alumuniumnya menyalurkan panas dengan baik.terbukti dengan cukup hangatnya casing saat operasional. controller intionya cukup bagus, terbukti dengan stabilnya transfer rate via firewire dan usb 2.0. untuk memindahkan data 12gb cuma butuh waktu 7menit dari HD internal ke Kangaroo ini.. adanya tombol on-off memungkinkan HD dimaatikan dan dinyalakan tanpa perlu unplug dan remove hardware dari task bar. cukup matikan dan nyalakan maka HD akan muncul dan menghilang (kalau sedang tidak ingin dipakai. overall harga 350rb cukup pantas untuk enclosure ini menurut g.

Pros: Mendukung 2 macam koneksi (Firewire vs USB2)
Cons: cuma bisa P-ATA. pengen nyari yg bisa S-ATA jg

susah mencari encloser dengan 2 koneksi. apalagi koneksi USB sering ngadat/macet di mobo model lama . solusi adanya firewire cukup membantu sebagai alternatif lain.
alangkah bagusnya juga ada produk semacam ini dengan HDD mode S-ATA. agar bisa mendukung HDD model sekarang yang ukurannya rakus-rakus.. 500GB boo.. hehehe.
