Belkin External Enclosure Review


I've seen similar products through the years. I've also seen very mixed results with these enclosures. Belkin's product works very well. It was a lot of work, but also very enjoyable to test.
Belkin’s External Drive Enclosure is the “digital shoebox” found. Users can access their optical drives and hard drives without opening their boxes and modifying their systems. The device proved stable across a variety of tests, and multiple systems using USB 1.1, 2.0, and FireWire connections. Both USB and FireWire were faster than both drives tested, and this is quite fast. The Belkin External Drive Enclosure is another “LD Approved” product.


For another opinion see this link. Also, About.com reviewed the drive here. The drive is generally well liked.
