USB 2.0 as a Multi-Purpose Solution: The External ATA Drive Case from ADS Technologies

ADS USB 2.0 Drive Kit

Many external drives do not have their own on/ off switches. The ADS USB Kit, by contrast, does. A positive feature: the small ventilator, which makes almost no noise at all.

Left to right: the kit comes with a power cable, a USB cable and a small power supply unit.

Windows 2000 and Windows XP do not need any drivers whatsoever. Windows 98, by contrast, does. ADS Tech. has packed everything you need onto a single CD.
