ICY DOCK Modiflash 722 Removable HDD Enclosure Review

This enclosure, which fits in a standard 5.25” bay, offers the best of both worlds: the high transfer speeds of an internal hard drive with the portability/expandability of an external one. Is it too good to be true?

The Modiflash 722 came in a sturdy cardboard box displaying the product and many of its features. The front shows the enclosure with its bold faceplate, and the back of the box has highlights of some of the key features and a list of the specifications.

Opening the box, the enclosure was well-protected by Styrofoam inserts and a plastic bag. Opening the box, you simply find the enclosure and a set of instructions in color.

The first thing I noticed was its sleek-looking aluminum exterior and its interesting faceplate. The faceplate that came with our sample enclosure had a picture of a warrior-looking figure holding a weapon. However, ICY DOCK informs us that the MB722 will ship with a black faceplate as seen in the right picture, with the warrior one included. There are additional faceplates available, though unfortunately none of those are included.
