...=Intro =
Tsunami has been traditionally producing cases, speakers and desktop manager (mice+keyboard+speakers). In the recent years, TSUNAMI seems to have moved away from the budget/lower range products and concentrating more on offering unique, innovative, artistic and quality products. They are even Intel exclusive partner for specialist chassis design. Today I have one of their 3.5" hard driveenclosure with me for testing - speed 3500. The version that I got in my hand supports both ide and sata hard drive.
=The Package=
Comes in color retail box with plenty of feature lists to give you a good idea what you are buying. The box is simple, but its very robust and will ensure the safe transport of the unit (even if you have a hard drive in). Also enclosed with foot stand (to position the device vertically or horizontally), USB2.0 cable...

Maximising Storage Review ofNEWlink USB2.0 IDE & SATA Hard DriveEnclosureby
trevorbrock
Advantages: Brilliant way of using spare hard drives Disadvantages: a tight fit, with little ventilation
...WHY ?
"""""""""""
Why, you might ask, would anyone want a NEWlink USB2.0 IDE & SATA Hard DriveEnclosure ? And even more to the point, why would such a person buy one, admit it and then go ahead and review it?
The answer my friend, is not blowing in the wind.! It was sitting on my shelf. It was a spare 80GB hard drive, that I had taken out of my PC when I put in a larger drive.
It annoyed me that this major investment when I first built my PC was now sitting idly by, giving me no return for my money.
Neither was there much point looking to dispose of it through Exchange & Mart, Ebay or the local shop window ads - who wants a redundant hard drive ? - especially when mine is SATA.
So for a little while, I had looked for an enclosure like this, into which I could place my hard disk, plug it into my USB and have an extra storage...

Advantages: Fast, reliable and small Disadvantages: None
...The hard drive is meant to be used internally but I use mine as an external hard drive with an USB external enclosure. The drive might not be the fastest around but it is fast enough to use for those large files that makes life difficult. The fact that it uses SATA makes faster than IDE hard drives of the same size. The SATA also makes it very stable and up to date with the latest technology. I like the fact that you can buy it for such a low price as well. The only disadvantage I can think of is that when you damage the hard drive you won't be able to retrieve 250 GB of data. I hope this helps everyone who is thinking of buying one....

This hard drive is very similar in look and feel to the other Passport versions that Western Digital has, in particular the Book with a glowing yellow circle that is very nice to look at and quite heavy to boot.
