Cools my drive

This case suits me. Installation is a bit trickier than some others, but then again the drive is held very securely and doesn't stand a chance of falling out of the bay like some other cases. My drive is a fast 6TB, 7200RPM model that draws a lot of power and generates a lot of heat. In other cases it overheated, but in this case it works fine. My only complaint was that the drive's power draw was too high to power the device, even though it was within specs. I spoke to a really great and responsive customer service rep and he immediately sent me a replacement power adapter.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Easy serviceability
