[QUOTE="American Dream, post: 41315, member: 125"] Hi Brisey.. Speaking from hands-on experience with Medion Products, I find the build quality lacking. There are some real nice units out there. The iomega drive came as a surprise as it was my second choice for a customer. Pleasantly surprised as housing was aluminium which was what I was after. The problem with caddies is that the heat generated by the drive does not dissipate and the drive runs very hot affecting the performance and life span of the drive causing early failure. The IOMEGA, for one vents this heat very well.I have recently had a succession of such drives through the workshop with drive failures and have had to recover data from them. Will try and get more details for you of others. Look for a Metal/aluminium finned and vented case preferably with a cooling fan. STEVE.:thumb: [/QUOTE]
