news 28 Posted July 10, 2008 Hi everyone, While any of us could walk into our local computer hardware store at any time and pick up an external hard disk, many of us want something more than a simple off-the-shelf unit, particularly when the more upgrade-happy individuals amongst us find ourselves with spare hard disks lying around just begging to be put to use. It's largely for this reason that quite an industry has built up around the sale of external hard disk enclosures, offering up the opportunity to use a hard disk of your choice within an enclosure which often offers more flexibility than an off-the-shelf external drive. Today, we'll be taking a look at just such an enclosure, in the form of Vizo's Luxon Advanced unit. Read on to find out both how it looks and performs. Vizo Luxon Advanced hard disk enclosure review "A closer look at the PCB of the Luxon and we can see that as well as supporting eSATA and USB 2.0 interfaces externally, it is actually also capable of supporting either an IDE or Serial ATA hard drive internally. While Serial ATA is now by far the most prevalent standard in the desktop hard disk market, if you're looking to reuse an old drive as a backup device or the like then the Luxon's capability of supporting an IDE drive may well be most welcome." http://www.elitebastards.com/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=589&Itemid=27 As always, a news post on your site would be hugely appreciated, and we guarantee to reciprocate by posting any news items received from yourselves.
