RadioShack.com has the Thermaltake BlacX USB Docking Station for $30 - $12 rebate [Exp 1/31] + $0 shipping = $18 shipped after rebate. Slam your hard drive into it to make it into a USB external hard drive. Check out this quick look at how it functions.

    Buy it from BestBuy instead for $52.00. They need the revenue to avoid Chapter 11.

    I brought one last year (12/01/0Cool. Never received it, had it delivered to local radioshack. Check with customer service they said they'll re-ship it, but at the end they said the package was lost and refund my money back.

    I got mine $15 AR shipped from RadioShack last BF, However it was shipped from Theramaltake ( located at City of industry CA) directly to my home. Not shipped to Radio shack store...
    I used to go Radio Shack a lot since at old time they do have a lot of record player replacement needle and some small electric components. However they discontinued them and I never go back again. So I do think as #4 does also...

    #7, it's SATA only, 3.5" & 2.5" and it works with my Seagate 1.5gb drive. I brought one from my local Micro-Center, after they canceled my order.

    These things are pretty handy. I have one and the only trouble I had was iniating and formatting a new WD Green drive with Win Vista. I didn't troubleshoot much I just gt around it by opening my case and plugging into MBO. After first format it worked fine in external holder.

    Bought a Thermaltake case from the shack last summer. Delivery took a long time, and the rebate is due 20 days after you place the order. I missed the deadline and lost the rebate. Then I ordered another one last Sept. Stupid? This time I made sure to make the deadline. Worldwide rebates approved the rebate DEC 1. I am still waiting for my check. I won't hold the breath. Another hint. Avoid the online rebate offered by Worldwide. Just go down to the post office and fill out a Certificate of Mailing for $1.00. I think this keeps them more honest.
