iStar has been around for almost 20 years, specializing in switching power supplies, rackmount chassis and server cabinets. iStar originally catered more towards IT professionals and the like, but in recent years, they have started creating products that the average consumer can use on a daily basis. Items such as ATX computer cases, hard drive coolers and external hard drive enclosures are all items now offered by iStar. Today we will be taking a look at one of iStar's new products, the T5F-SS, a mobile hard drive rack for use with any 3.5" SATA drive.


The T5F-SS arrived in the retail (or maybe OEM) package you see above. There is a large photo of the rack on the front and back of the box, as well as the product name. There are no specifications or features list on the box which is a little unusual. Below is a complete list of specs, borrowed from iStar's website.


The T5F-SS has some pretty neat features, such as support for SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) as well as SATA and a key lock for added security. Continue ahead as we take a closer look at this 5.25" hard drive rack...
