Raidsonic IB-390StUSD-B HDD Docking Station Review
With the need of more harddrive space we need more space to store them. The latest HDD docking station makes it easy for you to swap drives and take them with you wherever you might need them.
It also looks good and is made out of a high quality casing... the question is; how well does it perform with a USB interface?

The rack itself is black with a Icy Box logo printed in the front. When you push the button it will push out a handle that you actually use to pull out the drive holder itself.
The cables in the back of the dock itself should be long enough for most cases so you can hook it up to your PSU and motherboard.
