Easy add-on

Rating: 4/5

Nice product - appears well constructed. I had no problems installing a 160gig Maxtor and getting it up and running real quickly.

Only problem was the outer covering material "slides" open to reveal the chassis - as it is supposed to. "Slides" - yes, but not easily! You've really got to tug pretty hard because of the close fit.

Also, note that in XP there is apparently a small bug in which it will not always recognize a removable drive in Explorer. Apprently will be fixed this summer in a maintenance release. You can go into computer management | Disk Management to see the new, removable drive and then Change the drive letter.

I was always able to see the drive in a CMD (DOS) box, too.

I just ordered a second unit of this Dual-Link

Works as advertised; great company that supports its product

Rating: 5/5

This is a great product, easy to use, and works as advertised. More importantly, ADS Tech stands behind their product with excellent support (although a toll call away.)

Easy to install either a new hard drive or dvd/cd-rom player and connect it to either USB-2 or Firewire port on your PC or laptop. (No support for systems prior to Win98SE).

Highly recommended.

Works great. XP Plug play as promised

Rating: 4/5

Pros :

1. simple to install HD. Used Maxtor 160 Ultra. havent tried DVD-R but looks like it can handle OK.
2. usb 1.1/ firewire (fast!) interface works. drivers not needed in XP.
3. cool case
4. has fan + external power supply

Cons :

1. a bit bulky.
2. a bit noisy.
3. no power switch in front (it has this in back).
4. some random errors in usb1.1. not advisable to use unless no option. go w/ firewire/usb2

overall a recommended buy.

UPDATE:

tried USB2 and works great, though its slower than Firewire. But
much faster than regular USB.
