The unit itself is well built but connectivity is not well explained in the quick start manual (a small folded piece of paper covering at least 8 languages)
Most of it is obvious - eSATA uses a SATA port on the motherboard. USB 3.0 is a straight feed through from either a spare USB 3.0 socket (not header) on the Motherboard or from add-on PCIx card. (A blanking plate with hole is provided if you need to take a feed off the rear of the PC to neaten things up.)
Whats not obvious is that the card reader runs off an internal USB2.0 header connector and this is the source of my frustration with the unit since the header is a single 14 pin block connecting the 4 USB ports (3 front panel and 1 for the card reader). However my motherboard is configured with 3 pairs of internal 8 pin USB connections so it doesnt fit.
I could probably hack the connector to give the card reader and 1 front USB but theres no pinouts in the manual and none that I can find on the web and frankly right now I dont have the time to fiddle around with it. I'm going to keep it because I needed a Front USB3.0 connection for my portable hard drive and I've ditched the box but otherwise I would be returning the item.

Icy Box was easily installed and blends in well with my tower. I had one minor problem in that my tower did not have an internal USB3 plug and I had to take the cable thro the tower to the external rear mounted port. Take note that some buyers of this unit will need to buy a 5" mounting bracket.

Just installed this product I was disappointed to find that the power connector was the old type 4-pin Molex connector and no adapter to sata was supplied. My Dell has no Molex connector's only sata power connectors I had to hack into a power cable to provide power, not very professional! Other than this, the product works fine and build quality looks good.

This fitted well in the 3.5" bay on my PC. No mounting brackets were required (although they would be, along with a fascia, for the 5.25" bays). Read more

Excellent
Very pleased with the product, packaging was well done too. The device is very easy to connect if you already have the adaptors for the drive bay, (my chassis came with a pair). Read more
