The HDD with the window is an old Western Digital Raptor X drive for those wondering. Shame more companies didn't put a window on any of their drives, thats such a cool thing!
This dock is garbage though, save some money and get an aluminum Unitek.
T3chHippieGlad someone else noticed - easily the coolest hard drives around (not temperature wise though).
I still remember getting Raptors for the system disk.
Nowadays it's all SSDs - better in every way, but there's nostalgia there, in an analog-to digital kind of way.
badlucktvThey came with a heatsink for a reason lol. I actually had to search a little bit to figure out the drive name. I'll still run mechanical drives for a while, I'd love a windowed one. It's one of the few parts in a PC that actually move while working on something (other than fans, meh) and I just always like that visible functionality.
T3chHippieI can't speak for the specific models in this drop, but the one I have is not junk. Cheap in price, yes. But I've had it for about 9 years and it still works perfectly. For what little I paid (maybe $20), it just can't be beat.
