RaidSonic je ponovo napravio odlično kućište koje se ističe svojim izgledom, kvalitetom, no i prihvatljivom cijenom od otprilike 160 kn. Premda je kućište teže i veće od konkurencije, ovo su namjeno učinjeni ustupci zbog odabira materijala su ovom kućištu osigurali odličan izgled, ali i visoku razinu robusnosti. USB kabel koji je ugrađen direktno na kućište je velika prednost u odnosu na modele s kojima je potrebno nositi odvojeni kabel. Sve pohvale također idu na računa toga kako je riješeno dodatno napajanje s obzirom da je izbjegnut glomazni AC adapter na taj način da disk po potrebi možete crpiti energiju iz dva USB konektora. No, ništa nije savršeno pa tako ni ovo kućište. Priručnik za instalaciju je mogao biti informativniji, a sama instalacija je mogla biti lakša s obzirom na to da smo za razdvajanje poklopca i kućišta morali rabiti odvijač.

Conclusion in english

RaidSonic again produced an excellent hard drive enclosure which sets itself apart from the competition by quality of build, very stylish looks and acceptable price (about 160 kn in Croatia). Altough Icy Box IB-281U is heavier and bigger than many 2.5-inch enclosures on the market, this was a conscious choice to make the device robust and good looking. Integrated USB cabel is also a big advantage in contrast to regular HDD enclosures with a separate cable. One other thing to praise is the way RaidSonic implemented additional power for the enclosure. Engineers avoided implementing bulky AC adapter. Instead, they added a special USB cabel which can be connected to the primary USB cable so enclosure can, if need be, draw power from two USB ports. Of course, nothing is perfected and this enclosure is not an exception. Installation manual could be little bit more informative and the installation itself could have been easier becuse we had to use straigth screwdriver to split apart lid from the enclosure.
