Tiny size -
7.5 in. x 5.5 in. x 1.25 in.

Firewire 800, USB 2.0

Firewire 400 with optional cable

  A really nice looking and tough built Firewire enclosure for SATA drives. Made mostly of aluminum, with your choice of a really beautiful black or white finish on it. These little enclosures are a great solution to your storage needs.

Cooling:

  Totally silent, no noisy fans. This enclosure was designed to use the aluminum's heat transferance capability. In my testing, 4 straight hours of heavy data transfers with an installed 10,000 rpm Raptor drive - the enclosure maintained drive temperature below 110ƒ. The hottest portion, the fluid dynamic bearing area of the drive, was at 107ƒ. That is well within the most optimal temperature range for today's hard drives. From a fanless case that is superb! (testing by Rick Stephens)

Tray Mounted Drives:

  The enclosure uses the same skeleton trays as the Burly 6 Bay Port Multiplier Enclosure. The drives and trays can be freely swapped back and forth between the PM Enclosure and the Firewire enclosure. Great for field use in the Firewire enclosure and studio use slid into the Burly tower. A very solidly designed hotswap tray system that positively engages and holds the drives tightly in place. This is one of the better latch systems we have seen.

Firewire 400:

  You can attach this enclosure to any USB or Firewire equipped computer or laptop. If your computer only has Firewire 400, no worries. With the addition of the optional Firewire 400 to Firewire 800 cable you can hook up and be completely compatible with any Firewire 400 computer. Performance is typically better than the usual Firewire 400 enclosure, the faster Firewire 800 chipset gives benefits even on Firewire 400 buses.
