Finally, I’ve got my external hard disk yesterday, which I’ve been wishing to get one since last year. I bought it from the Digital Mall, the latest ICT hang-out place in Section 14, PJ.
Yeah, I know that PC fair is around the corner, but I’d still prefer to shop here than to be trapped in the PC fair jam for 2 hours for only an external hard drive.
When I went shopping around for the external hard drive, I got stuck with this handy and nice-looking external HDD enclosure, NexStar External 2.5" HDD Enclosure (USB 2.0) NST-280U2-BK.
The enclosure is nice from the layout and it is manufactured by Vantec, which is a US brand. The product comes in 2 classic colors, Onyx Black and Metallic Silver. The NexStar-SX also utilizes USB 2.0, offering up to 480 Mbps, 40 Times and the Speed of the USB 1.1. It feels light when I carry it on hand. The enclosure itself costs me RM42. And the hard disk costs me RM185. So, the total cost for this nice looking hard disk is RM227. Is that Cheap? I am not so sure.
I’ve decided to go for the Black one, as I personally think it is cool. The whole package for the NexStar External 2.5" HDD Enclosure contains of 2.5" HDD enclosure, driver Disc, user manual, USB cable, leather carrying case, screws, and screwdriver.
This is how my external hard disk looks like:
Full Package: NexStar External 2.5" HDD Enclosure
I tested on the hard disk right after the shopping. The speed is fast as in writing and reading data. The aluminum casing helps to cool down the hard drive, which I don’t really feel the heat even after 4 hours of usage.
I do think that this product is valued for money. Don’t you think so?
