Today for review I’ve got a product that some people might not find very exciting, but I personally find them very useful, especially if you’ve got two of them. It is what’s called a mobile rack, or an internal hard drive enclosure, and they can be useful for easily swapping …

Hard drive enclosures today come in many shapes and sizes, but they usually have one inherent flaw, that is compatibility, in that they can only use one type of drive, either 2.5" or 3.5", meaning that you’ll have to purchase separate enclosures for each type of drive you …

Hard drive enclosures come in many shapes, sizes and styles and they’re all pretty much the same really, you put a hard drive in them and you’re ready to take your data with you wherever you go, but they don’t offer much in the way of security. Yes they’re nice for their portability and ease …
