Introduction:

Long gone are the days when computers ran off a 540K floppy with 64K of RAM and a 20MB hard drive was considered excessive. Today's workstations require massive amounts of hard drive space simply to install an operating system. It is not uncommon to see people working with files too large to fit on standard removable media. While 100MB networks and CDRW drives make getting large files from one computer to another more convenient, sometimes even those solutions fall short. Enter the realm of portable hard drive enclosures which allow you to quickly transport entire file directories from one machine to another using standard USB, Firewire or SATA based interfaces. Today in the MTB Labs, we will be evaluating the new SilverStone MS02, a unique transportable storage solution using standard 2.5" notebook IDE hard drives.
