Quote: Hard drive a little hot around the collar? We are looking at a great looking cooler from Vantec. It's not an enclosure, but rather straps to the side of your drive. Let's take it for a test drive.

“Form and functionality collide with style in the Nexstar 3 External SATA Hard Drive Enclosure from Vantec. With its mirror finish, sleek curves and bold colors, the Vantec Nexstar 3 stands out from the crowd. The sturdy drive cage protects your hard drive while the aluminum case effectively draws away the heat, protecting your drive from overheating. The Nexstar 3 features eSATA (external Serial ATA) and USB 2.0 interfaces offering speeds up to 3Gbps or 480Mbps respectively. This flexibility allows you to use your hard drive at its full performance where eSATA is available and still have the option of using USB where it's not. The Nexstar 3 is an ideal way to store and transfer large amounts of data in an enclosure that matches your style!”

A small extract, if it helps.
"And we like the way we can put things on this Vantec NexStar GX like a telephone which helps to keeps our desks clutter free. The metallic grey colour we found also goes well and almost seems to change colour depending on the amount of light hitting it.
