Introduction:
We've started to see a lot of 2.5" drive enclosure docking systems on the market in the past few months. These offer not only a great way to take your data "on the go" with you through a USB enclosure; but when your at home they can be docked and connected straight to your motherboard's SATA port for almost no speed loss! Today we have the chance to look at Silverstone's introduction into this territory, the MS05.
