A versatile external hard drive enclosure with a dual interface
There isn't exactly a shortage of external drive enclosures around at present, but what makes the Akasa Integral P2 E-Sata stand out is its flexibility with the type of drive you want to install and its dual interface.
Built from piano-black finished aluminium, which helps keep the drive cool, the unit can be stacked to save space.
It accepts either ATA or serial ATA (Sata) hard drives (up to 400GB) and it’s a simple matter of undoing two screws on the back of the unit to get access to the inside and then mounting the drive with the four screws provided.
At the back of the unit sit USB2 and external serial ATA sockets, with a switch to alternate between the two.
You can purchase the Akasa Integral P2 E-SATA from Vadim Computers in the UK.

Overall: The dual interface of the Akasa Integral P2 E-Sata makes it stand out from the crowd

Instruction manual
I had problems setting up the "New Partition Wizard" and could not therefore use the software.The instruction manual is badly written.For this reason it is a waste of money.
