Solid piece - Looks great too!, May 23, 2009

By	Adam S. Humphrey "Adam Humphrey" (Indianapolis, IN USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: ineo I-NIA302U, 3.5-Inch IDE/SATA Hybrid External Hard Drive Enclosure to USB 2.0 Galaxy Neon Light (Black) (Electronics)

I just received this today and it works great (like most of these). It has a nice blue led that makes the unit glow when being used. Its not too bright though and adds to my home studio vibe.
I installed a WD IDE HDD and had no problems securing it in place. The HDD felt secure without using screws. I did find it odd that the screw holes on the unit didn't match up with me Western Digital HDD, but maybe they're set up for SATA drives.
It was immedicately recognized and worked the first time.
The finger screws are a nice feature and look better than screw heads.
After having it on for a couple hours and running a full virus scan on my drive the outside of the unit was barely warm at all.
That's all I know and now you know it too!

I would recommend this product.

The Best Enclosure Kit!!!!, May 28, 2010

By	J. Joiner - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: ineo I-NIA302U, 3.5-Inch IDE/SATA Hybrid External Hard Drive Enclosure to USB 2.0 Galaxy Neon Light (Black) (Electronics)

I purchase the ineo I-NIA302U, 3.5-Inch IDE/SATA Hybrid External Hard Drive Enclosure Kit. For my Seagate 1TB Hard Drive which I got from Wal-Mart for $18 dollars. However when I found out that my Dell Dimension 3000 didn't have SATA. I decided to buy the ineo I-NIA302U, 3.5-Inch IDE/SATA Hybrid External Hard Drive Enclosure Kit. It was simple to install and without any problems it was easy and fun. Also I love the blue LED lights. Which gives off a nice cool blue effect on the enclosure kit.

Pros:

1. Easy to remove thumb screws
2. Nice Blue LED Lights + Iron Mesh design for Cooling
3. Nice Horizontal or Vertical with Stand

Cons:

1. SATA Cable is too small and hard to plug into the HD
2. SATA Power Cable is too small and hard to plug into the HD

A great enclosure that could be better, May 18, 2010

This enclosure is sleek and sexy with it's liquid cool-blue light glowing during operation. For the most part this was a fairly straight forward install taking an old unused internal 500 Gb and making it into something useful again. The drawback were the cables used inside for custom connections - they were too short and so I had to make do with not-so-terrific cable runs (the wires lay across some of the circuits.
Overall, a great product and will probably be buying more.
