Vizo, makers of a wide range of computer products, has come out with a product, the Vizo Master Panel II, which enables you to utilize an extra 5.25” drive bay to connect peripherals and that also can read a variety of memory cards. Is this product as versatile as it sounds? Read on to find out more.

The Vizo Master Panel II arrived in a sturdy, well-designed box with a nice picture of the cooler on the front. The back of the package has a detailed list of features and specifications. As its name suggests, this is the second product in the Master Panel series, with the first one providing less capability than this one.

Opening up the package, the panel is securely held in-place by custom plastic insert. Along with the panel, the package comes with a large variety of cables needed to connect the panel to the computer and other mounting accessories such as screws and zip ties.

Taking a closer look at panel, we see that the panel does offer a variety of features to aid in connecting and operating peripherals. First off is the card reader slots that support Compact Flash, Memory stick, Smart Media, and MMC/SD cards; these are the most common cards on the market today. Next, there are two fan speed controllers that allow you to adjust the speed of the case or accessories fans depending on your application. There are audio/video connections for video, speakers, and a microphone. And finally, there are two USB 2.0, a 1394 firewire, and an eSATA port on the panel as well. All-in-all, I think Vizo did a good job of packing the Master Panel II full of useful features. Perhaps the only thing I thought was missing was a volume control.
