  Introduction :

iONE is a division under MGE, a manufacturer of varieties of computer parts supplying the global market. Product coverage includes power supply, chassis, HDD enclosures, keyboards, wireless devices and speakers. Sales and distribution is under Eagle Tech in the U.S. Skyhawk is another brand under this umbrella of sales & distribution. It sounds complicated, but it is not uncommon to have multi-channels of sales of distributions amongst different brands within a corporation in targeting customer at all levels of interest and location.

Key takeaway: ion® stands for:

I-nnovative wireless technology
O-utstanding performance and reliability
N-easily networked cases and enclosures
E-legant and sleek design

The review unit today is in BLACK.

    The single fan on the right rear is not from power supply. Although it looks like one, it is merely an exhaust fan from a long channel of air duct inside. The other side of the power socket is connected via a long cable to the rear of the case where the power supply is located. The left two fans are 60x25mm in size.
