Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Vantec NST-260SU-BL NexStar 3 External Hard Drive Enclosure Form and functionality collide with style in the NexStar 3 External SATA Hard Drive Enclosure from Vantec. With its mirror finish, sleek curves and bold colors, the Vantec NexStar 3 stands out from the crowd. The sturdy drive cage protects your hard drive while the aluminum case effectively draws away the heat, protecting your drive from overheating. The NexStar 3 features eSATA (external Serial ATA) and USB 2.0 interfaces offering speeds up to 3Gbps or 480Mbps respectively. This flexibility allows you to use your hard drive at its full performance where eSATA is available and still have the option of using USB where it's not. The NexStar 3 is an ideal way to store and transfer large amounts of data in an enclosure that matches your style!

Solid Enclosure, great buy July 12, 2008 'Mike Hauncho' (Colorado) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've used several Vantec SATA enclosures in my work environment and have always been impressed with their reliability. Screwing the Hard Drive down to the board that has the SATA to USB connection is essential for reliable data transfer and integrity. I bought this to replace the flimsy plastic enclosure for my Western Digital Passport Drive, which the USB to SATA connection stopped working. While it is now bulkier then the original WD enclosure, its better protected and I'm not as concerned about data loss. I strongly recommend this to anyone looking to salvage their laptop hard drives, or build their own USB HDD's. Shop around on price, Amazon, Newegg and Monoprice (.com) are usually within 5 dollars of each other, so, whichever offers free shipping would be my choice.
Inconsistent Product Dimensions May 23, 2008 Vita Brevis (Littleton, CO USA) 0 out of 7 found this review helpful
The dimensions of the hard case are not consistent with the dimensions provided for the carrying case. Poor quality assurance?
