Metal Gear Box Substance (USB HD Enclosure)


Recommended Posts

well let me first start off by saying AWSOME, now i know usb 2.0 isnt as fast as internal specially when ur doing it hd wise.. but i must say this is pretty damn fast to me, i slapped a 250GB WD 8mb 7200 into it with stuff already on it (mp3) and all i had to do was go into disk management and re-active the disk and boom everything is back, installing the drive its self was a breeze connect 2 cables and screw down the top, if wanted u can secure the drive inside the enclosure but i skipped that step because the drive is snug in there ne ways. another nice/annoying (sometimes) feature is the led light its blue and light blue, well when there is activity it blinks, so its like a strobe if there alot of activity ex.. raring a file or unraring, but normal mp3 useage (what im using it for) it blinks like once every 15secs or so, u can also turn that blink feature off it you would like to, one problem however did find was the way it sits is on 4 little studs that are metal, they tend to have no grip and slide all over, but if u do like i did in the pics, a few peices of grip material will do the trick, the cost is also very decent i got it for $29.99 with 2day shipping from ebay.

so b4 the pics lets go over pros/cons

pros:

easy setup

mesh grill that allows air to cool the hd (its been running 24hrs+ now and its just a lil warn.. not as hot as it would be in the cas)

its portable!

the blue light is a nice lil feature i guess..

its metal and looks cool

cons:

the 4 metal posts it rests on (tends to slide without griping material)

the blue led blinks when activity

i would recommend this because it does support upto 300gb and ive read places saying they tried the new 400gb drive it in and it worked

yes it was 29.99 including 2day shipping from cali, and its a brushed aluminum texture, and they are also stackable, i have 3 more on the way :p

How exactly did the makers of this HDD case get the name past Konami??

"Metal Gear Box Substance" vs. "Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance"

I can't be the only one who's made this connection...Hell, even the fonts are nearly identical.

    • ahh yes the good old your opinion differs from mine so you are therefore insane lol destiny 1 had no agenda pushing and was a massive success of a game, if you clearly look online the team for some reason thought they had too many men on the team and went on a woman and dei recruitment drive and we all know how destiny 2 performed from then on in
    • The limited imaginations and business acumen of non-dominant players is simply that: the abject lack of creative business acumen. Businesses often want to operate in a financially-rewarding marketplace (free market economics) and/or exit/cash-out at maximal financial recompense. Money is their incentive; regulations are both their obstacles and their tools; politics is their means of influencing the marketplace. Google, in this story's example, is crying that AWS and Azure are "too dominant" -- cuz Google Cloud is not printing as much money as Alphabet wants (although it is still dramatically more than they actually need). The EU DMA should truly follow-the-money and treat the EU as its own sovereign nation in order to protect European market players: Domestic entities are exempt from market-influence regulations until absolute monopoly is achieved; Foreign (non-EU/non-Euro) entities are all regulated via stricter DMA measures whereby regulated partnership with independent domestic entity becomes the only way for foreign entities to 'tip the scale' for favorable financial remunerations. Basically create a dual-track aligning with China's foreign investment models. In my eyes, this is the only way to properly protect the European marketplace beyond the current dot-com/ai-bubble/social-media crazes.
