Last month I reviewed the Icy Box External 2.5" HDD Enclosure and while it did well in testing, it did come up short in a few areas. The Icy Box came with a 3 1/2" drive bay to mount in your case (granted you have a floppy drive bay - I don't) and had support for eSATA, but did not include any supporting hardware (add-in card for eSATA). Today I will be looking at my second 2.5" HDD enclosure in as many months, in the Vantec EZ-Swap EX 2.5" drive enclosure. This enclosure offers a different mix of features, which may prove to be more useful that those on the Icy Box.
