Customer Reviews:
Works well, good design, 2008-10-07 A nice actively-cooled design. In a short test, the exterior of the case didn't get warm at all.
Connectors all fit snugly, there's a front activity LED, and the design inside is nice, the drive drops into place and slides back to connect, no fumbling with shortie cables inside a cramped case. It's not completely silent but not very loud either.
The vents for the case are not shrouded, if you used your MX-1 regularly the inside of the case may get gunk inside (eg, pethair).
Also, the USB connection will not function if an eSATA cable is connected to the case (even if it's not connected on the PC side). Remove the cable entirely to use it in USB mode. (there's a diagram in the directions indicating this but it wasn't totally clear)
Decent case, good purchase like most gear made by Antec.
