ICY DOCK MB559US-1SMB: eSATA Enclosure

Sidney · 11th July 2007, 20:29

ICY DOCK has been around for over 12 years now and although they are not a household name, if you have shopped for drive enclosures there is a good chance you have noticed them. In fact, drive enclosures is their one and only business. They specialize in providing a complete lineup of internal and external drive enclosures utilizing various interface technologies. It should not be surprising that they were one of the first companies to market an external enclosure with a eSATA interface.

Same burst speed issue I saw with Antec MX-1

hooking MX-1 to eSATA of Asus does increase performance
