Review on ICY DOCK MB492SKL B Industrial External by John Blanco

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Damn cool. Replace that old 3.5 " drive with something useful!

Damn cool. i have a whole body Tower case, full drive, with six fans blowing air and glowing inside like a Christmas tree. I have room for six hard drives, 2 DVD/Blu-Ray drives and my XM radio. BUT - unfortunately a remnant of the old case was a 3.5" floppy drive whose only function was to plug the 3.5" hole as the bezel cover was long gone. What to do? Are you leaving an old floppy drive lying uselessly in the front of the case, taking up valuable space? NO Enter the ICY DOCK 2.5" drive carrier. I removed this old piece of shit from the floppy drive and put it right in. Works like high performance server drives: press the button, grab the handle and pull the drive out of the slot .GREAT for disc backups.Just before your vacation, just take out the discs and leave them on your desk in case of fire, burglary or kidnapping.All your belongings will be with you when you return.Flashing lights during the usage make the computer even cooler and nerdy I'm ordering a second one to replace my other 3.5" cover which currently covers the space occupied by the old 250GB hard drive.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
