    Jetdrive Aluminum HDD Enclosures Review

    Posted on Wednesday, March 07 2007 @ 19:20:24 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck


    The X9 Pleiades S2 from Jetdrive takes its cue from Apple with its brushed aluminum finish and even its perforations and styling will remind one of Apple's Power Mac G5. The X9 Pleiades S2 is quite the standard no-frills HDD enclosure though, as it lacks some of the more cutting edge RAID and NAS features, though its eSATA support should still give power users adequate flexibility other than the USB 2.0 connection. The interior of the X9 Pleiades S2 is rather stuffy and with a hard drive mounted, there is little room near the base for the drive to 'breathe'. We wouldn’t recommend using this for extended periods of time, especially when there is no active exhaust built in. The enclosure itself doubles up as its own passive heat dissipation system, but with full sized disk drives, it would probably still get quite hot.
