Smart
Drive 2002 Copper
Truly
a smart solution for your annoying hard drive noise, the
innovative GUP SmartDrive Enclosure quiets your hard drive
by about four decibels (even more with particularly noisy
hard drives). A reduction of four decibels with the Smart
Drive enclosure can translate into a hard drive whose perceivable
noise is about half that of the original drive. In terms
of perceivable noise reduction, the Smart Drive will have
a modest quieting effect on an already quiet hard drive
like the Seagate Barracuda ATA V, while it will have a more
noticeable and dramatic effect with a noisier hard drive.

Smart Drive 2002 Copper Features
The Smart Drive 2002 Copper hard drive enclosure is overlayed
with crisp looking, black anodized aluminum. The core of
the Smart Drive 2002 Copper is made up of a highly conductive
copper plates. In addition to this the Smart Drive uses
heat sink like channels to allow for efficient heat dissipation
from your hard drive. The Smart Drive can be mounted in
the forward position in a 5 1/4" drive bay in order to leave
the attractive front face exposed on your drive bay panel.
However, in order to ensure the most efficient cooling situation,
we recommend mounting the Smart Drive back in the drive
bay so as to leave an air gap between the front of the drive
bay and the Smart Drive enclosure. This versatile hard drive
enclosure also works with both parallel ATA and serial ATA
(SATA).

Smart Drive 2002 Copper Hard Drive Enclosure - Ideal Cooling
This Smart Drive 2002 Copper hard drive enclosure is truly one of the most
innovative enclosures available. In our tests, the Smart
Drive 2002 Copper significantly lowered hard drive temperatures
(even in 10,000 rpm drives). With other hard drive enclosures
designed to lower the noise level of your hard drive, overheating
was a concern. With the Smart Drive 2002 Copper your hard
drive is both cooler and quieter than if it was simply mounted
on hard drive rails.
