Conclusions:

The Coolmax Gemini Cd-309-U2 is really a pleasure to use. The installation is extremely easy, and the convenience of being able to take your internal hard drive with you and use it on any computer with a USB connection is great.

I would recommend this enclosure to anyone who has a lot of data that they can't live without. Music, pictures, videos, documents, you name it and this enclosure will let you carry lots of it. For much than the price of a 1GB compact flash micro drive you could have a 120GB top-end hard drive and the external enclosure that will perform much faster.

Some people prefer to have rubber boots on the ends instead of the plastic caps to protect against accidental dropping, but since I'm not in the business of dropping hard drives it's not a big concern for me.

Thanks again to Crazy PC for another great product.

Pros:
-Solid packaging
-Solid construction
-Very attractive
-Parts all fit together well
-Extremely easy to assemble
-Very convenient and easy to use

Cons:
-Short USB and power cables
-Some would prefer rubber end caps
I give this enclosure a 9.5/10 because it was designed well, performs well, and looks good as well.

Rating: 4.5/5
