Coolmax Storage Reviews

Reviews for this Coolmax storage (7 user reviews): "Sounds like I suddenly live next to an airport...I would have rated this higher, but as all 4 cases exhibited the same issues I can not recommend these drives...Loose wiring that would come apart when trying to put case back together with Samsung 1TB HDD Shoddy construction overall..."

Reviews for this Coolmax storage (17 user reviews): "I don't recommend this enclosure if a quiet enclosure is important to you...But I will have to say that the air flow is very good...I'm using a hard drive that is known to have heat problems so this is a good match..."

Reviews for this Coolmax storage (23 user reviews): "Imagine you have a couple hundred gigabytes of MP3s you would like to move from your office computer (got to put those company resources to good use, eh...Burning to CD or DVD is certainly one way to go, but if your PC lacks a burner, or the designated "burning station" is off limits, that idea goes out the window...Today, we look into an alternative to buying an external HDD...Inside, we have the CD-510-U2 aluminum enclosure..."

Reviews for this Coolmax storage (35 user reviews): "Overheats on normal conditions and then freezes...It IS slow, but if you need to have network storage, then this is pretty good...now i can share my data and photo to families and friend without turning my computer on...good job NOTHING GOOD..."

Reviews for this Coolmax storage (50 user reviews): "I don't think I have ever been as disappointed in a computer related product as I was with this one...Not a real good option for a network storage device...This is a very good low cost solution as long as you can figure out how to get it going......"

Reviews for this Coolmax storage (13 user reviews): "I've been using Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices on my home network for a couple of years now and I really like them...As consumer-level NAS devices go, Coolmax's CN-570 has a fairly large and heavy case with a bit of a clunky feel...The CN-570 is a Bring-Your-Own disk box, so when I opened the case up to install my drive, I was a bit surprised to find no disk mounting brackets...When the CN-570 is used as a network device, external USB disk, flash drives or a printer can be plugged in and made available across the network..."

Reviews for this Coolmax storage (14 user reviews): "None I ultimately decided to go with a full computer for a NAS and got a cheap Shuttle XPC and put a 1.5TB harddrive inside it with Windows Home Server installed...much better solution than standalone NAS if you want a good GUI interface...Very good transfer speeds, ease of use, and thus far reliability make it a pretty good choice in my opinion...HDD active light would be nice, it only has a power light, and maybe coolmax should throw in 10/100/1000 networking...It's only 10/100 in it's current production, even though it still gets very good transfer speeds..."
