Many of you already know, ICY DOCK are currently planning to launching a brand new external single bay removal enclsoure that use either SATA I/II or IDE Hard Drive and make it compatible to eSATA/USB 2.0 outputs using MB452 housing design.

Would do you think about this idea and product? Do you think the there is a similar product like this out in the market now? What would be a sweet spot on MSRP or reseller price?

Brand new release for MB452

Right now, we are currently planning to put SATA I/II or IDE Hard Drive and make it compatible to eSATA/USB 2.0 outputs under single unit using MB452 housing design.

What do you guys think about this idea?

Just for general information, There is two models of MB337 (http://www.icydock.com/product/mb337.htm), The Different is MB337 is IDE version and MB722 (http://www.icydock.com/product/mb722.html ) is SATA Version. Even though the manual said MB337SKGF-B it is still MB722 (SATA Version). All faceplate are interchangeable but for all of our MB722 has Black faceplate as standard to less confused consumer, also the consumer will be receiving a free MB337 faceplate insert that is current inside the MB722 box (Limited supply). Please go by the MB722 webpage on our website for more information.
