External hard drive cases are hardly an innovative product, still today we choose to review one such case from our new friends - Vizo. The especially interesting thing about it is that it allows use of both PATA and SATA drives – a rare combination indeed. The particular model we'll be reviewing is named Luxon Advanced.
Our friends from
Vizo
were kind enough to supply us with a sample of their external hard drive cases, Luxon Advanced. It works with both SATA drives and PATA ones. And we imagine that for those of you that still keep them around, that's most welcome. The case is made from aluminum and allows connection through either USB 2.0 or ESATA 3.0G.
