im looking for some reliable and good 2.5" HDD enclosure....
which brand's enclosure is better?
my budget is around RM150.....

another thing is im looking for the Cooler Master X Craft 250's price....
can anyone tell me how much is that?

I'm using Vantec NexStar. Below RM150

i m using xcraft with seagate 120gb model 5400.3
i feel it's not a good choice coz rumours say that xcraft usb is actually working at 2.0 and not high speed 2.0
so u will suffer quite a lot if u transfer large files a lot (above 1gb)

if u hv the budget, go for sarotech

so how much u had paid for the xcraft?

that time was rm80
the only best thing with it is the bag provided.
the shinny surface attracts thumb prints, vertical stand will make it more vulnerable to bad sectors due to accidental falls, even the ventilation holes r not full frame. it's only at the front.
the 1 touch backup is just a hype. u need software to be installed n constantly running in the background to hv that feature which to me is uselss coz the background process will hog resource.

overall, find a better option.
