Vantec NexStar LX NAS HDD Enclosure Review

Posted on 2006-07-30 02:11:50 by LSDsmurf

However, as Diceman also noted with the NexStar GX, the top plastic cover doesn't feel quite all that sturdy, and feels more like a plastic drive bay cover - not very tough at all. I was hoping Vantec would've fixed this for the LX, but unfortunately, they have not. Further compounding the problem is the fact that the cover just snaps into place via its plastic tabs - not a very reassuring way to be securing your HDD. In order to remove the plastic cover, you have to pry it off, using a small screwdriver or similar tool, and this doesn't inspire confidence in its quality - if those plastic tabs break, the cover's useless. This is one area I would like to see improved; perhaps use a tougher cover that's secured by screws.
