While a relatively new name in the United States, HornetTek has a history that goes back more than a decade. The company began manufacturing enclosures in 1999 and has established itself as one of the industry's leading enclosure providers, specializing in external storage and multimedia solutions. By forming a standard yet efficient product development procedure, HornetTek's engineering team is able to deliver state-of-the-art designs at a competitive price.
HornetTek recently released an updated version of its popular Viper 3.5-inch hard drive enclosure. The new Viper U3 retains the same simplistic design as the original. Made out of rigid aluminum, the enclosure's case applies catalytic heat dissipation mechanisms to remove heat and keep the hard drive cool. The Viper U3 also utilizes a vertical stand, minimizing the amount of space occupied. Last but not least, it features a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface capable of delivering transfer rates up to 5 Gb/s.
