Great way to fit 3 drives in 2 bays. Drives stay cool. A great little raid cage, I would both buy again and recommend to a friend.

Power Supply: Stablepower Gold 1000w-2012-09-01
XClio STABLEPOWER GOLD 1000W is an excellent power supply! Got one in my older computer with excellent results and no failures and still have no failures in my second. Never have heard the fan spin, ever - in comparison to other PSU"s that can be loud and obnoxious. It was easy to install. Had it for almost over 2 months now and no problems. Runs as quietly as ever. System is stable with enough spare power for future upgrades/additions. Can"t go wrong with 80+ gold. It runs solid and the modular design gives me lots options. Great deal for 1000w under 200 bucks.
XClio IPC BP1425 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-09-01
Fits 4 2.5" SAS/SATA hard drives into a single 5.25" drive bay slot. Looks good -- reminds me of the professional look of Compaq server products (black cage, dark red/maroon release tabs). Very easy to setup and install. Gets a lot of "street cred" when your computer buddies ask "What"s that?" and you tell them it"s a 1TB RAID5 array in a single 5.25" slot :)
XClio IPC BP1425 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-09-01
This is so perfect! Fits right into my 5.25 bay. I have two Patriot SSD 64GB (Raid 0) and two WD Velociraptors 150GB (Raid 0) in there. The lights come on indicating everything is swell. I have tested the hot swap on a mirror raid and everthing is sweet! I should have just bought 4 velociraptor drives and done a RAID 5 (nVidia raid).

You could connect and use your HDMI devices everywhere with XClio"s mini & micro adapters.
Power Supply: XClio Greatpower 550W-2012-09-01
Great looks! The blue LED Fans are huge and quiet. This case has plenty of room and was a breeze to set up... Truly a tooless case. My computer was packed with 3 HD"s 4 optical drives an FX -60 processor and 2 Geforce 7800 GTX"s running SLI. My system ran really hot until now. This case keeps everthing cool. Front Magnetic Door easy close and open.

Power Supply: Stablepower Gold 750w-2012-08-31
First time buyer of XClio products. My impression is that I would certainly buy from them again. XClio STABLEPOWER GOLD 750W has great modular design with cool and quiet operation. 80Plus Gold certificate. Capable of SLI. Silent fan is great. I can"t hear my PC over the TV anymore. Modular cabling is very neat. Cables are plenty long enough in my HAF912. Plenty of power for my overclocked i5 and crossfired 6870s.
PC CASE: XClio Touch 787 PC Case-2012-08-31
While I would have liked to have seen a USB 3.0 20-pin connection on this case, at least we do still get USB 3.0 in the front I/O, even if it does take up one from the rear I/O to do so. There weren"t any real fit issues, but I must say these door panels are some of the tightest fitting panels I have seen in a while. It really took some force to remove the panel, and when re-installing it, I had to really force them back in place as well. The only real downside that I can speak of, and I better do it with the case off, is the noise level of these included fans. I thought the Touch 320 was a bit loud for my tastes, double the fans, and you can imagine things don"t get any quieter. While the fan speed is adjustable, on high speed, the noise is too much for me to personally like it. If I were to use this chassis the fans wouldn"t make it past low speed. Even then the ten included fans offer plenty of air at low speeds to sufficiently cool the interior and my components.

XClio Touch 787 PC Case
The touch series cases have now not only added simplicity with the touch controls for the power of the PC, the LED lighting, power of the fans, three various speeds, silencing the beep, and even locking the control panel are all just as easy as a soft touch for a second on the appropriate button. At first, what I thought was just going to be a larger rendition of the 320 we just looked at, I am pleasantly surprised to see that the ideas and implementation of those ideas are still coming from Xclio as they keep pace with other solutions, just in a different manner. Most cases in this price range offer some sort of removable hard drive racks, and Xclio does too. When the drive racks are in place, even then the orientation of the drives is just so natural to allow airflow and ease of access to then drives with just the release of a clip.
IPC XClio SS014 Backplane-2012-08-31
XClio IPC SS014 supports interface SAS/SATA, two low noise 40mm fan (DC 12V./0.25A.) that eliminate the heat rapidly, and two Molex 4 Pin connector (-5 V /12V) for power up the fans.

XClio TR1135BOX (SAS/SATA HDD Mobile Rack Enclosure )-2012-08-31
I tried Dual Booting and didn"t really like how things were going with it. I now have two of these and will purchase two more here shortly. NO More problems with my system. I put my Vista Drives in and I have a Vista System. I change them out and have an XP system! TWO Machines for little cash invested! PLUS I like to try out new things like Linux and I will be taking some Server courses. Way trash your everyday system or bring it down even for a few hours by mistake when you can pull out your Everyday system and Put in another drive tinker with it and then swap it again whenever you want!
XClio IPC BP2335 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-31
Solid construction- very sturdy. Sliding vent covers on drive trays to block airflow in empty trays. Easy to swap the cooling fan.
XClio IPC BP2335 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-31
Very well built. No problems with installation.Packaged well.Data Transfer Rate up to 6.0 Gb/s. Solid construction, good cooling, nice solid trays & handles.
XClio IPC BP1425 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-31
Great construction, easy to access drives, will be great when I migrate to ssd drives. Good design and construction. Everything comes apart with screws for customization. Plenty of airflow around HDDs.
XClio IPC BP1425 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-31
Holds four 2.5 drives, perfect for a RAID10 /. Looks like you can do the multi-path SAS on this, though I don"t use this technology in my workstation. The sleds for the drives are pretty nice construction. Aesthetically this thing is sharp looking. I haven"t really seen any other available 4 bay 5.25 inch containers that appear to be as good construction as this, so it"s kind of a no-brainer if you"re on the market for one.
XClio TR1135BOX (SAS/SATA HDD Mobile Rack Enclosure )-2012-08-31
Chassis & rail have full metal construction; Very well-built. 80mm low-profile turbo fan mounted on the underside provides plenty of airflow where your hard drive needs it most. On/Off switch allows you to leave the drive in-place without actually powering up the drive. Direct connection between MoBo and chassis, and direct connection between chassis and hard drive means *ZREO* loss in data transfer speeds!
Power Supply XClio Goodpower 550W-2012-08-31
This power supply is great. It is modular and will mount into a top or bottom case configuration. The wire bundles are adequately flexible (heavy wire is less flexible) and have sufficient length. I have used some other brands that had ripple and regulation (voltage) problems. This unit has neither ripple or regulation issues. Everything you"d expect from a professional-grade 80-plus bronze certified modular PSU. Packaging was great, plenty of cords, and plenty of instructions for newbies or pros.
XClio IPC BP2335 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-31
Fast tool less install, trayless, three lockable SATA cables, hot-swappable, led on-off option, lockable, two power inputs to power three HDD"s, and mostly aluminum construction that fits in a two bay space.
XClio IPC BP2335 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-31
Installs quickly into Storm Sniper case. Western Digital 1TB drive install in less than 5 minutes. Initialize and quick format hdd, backup 50 GB data in less than 30 minutes. Looks beautiful in the case, works like a dream. Can"t wait to fill up the remaining two hdd slots!
XClio IPC BP2335 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-31
I have 2x WD 500g in RAID0 as a DATA drive and 1x 2Tb Hitachi (7200rpm) a backup storage (Acronis images, ISO"s, etc). The drives hot swap easily, handle snaps positively in place ensuring a tight connection. Additionally, the length is shorter than many other similar devices. No problem with bumping into the mobo power connector or long video. My Vantec caddy is too long!
XClio TR2535USB (SAS/SATA HDD Mobile Rack with USB3.0 Hub )-2012-08-30
Solid construction, drives snap in place perfectly, supports SATA 3, Has shock mounts on rails. Open construction keeps drives cool.
PC CASE: XClio Windtunnel Advanced PC Case-2012-08-30
Pros: HUGE! You can fit anything you want in this baby and it will still have plenty of room. Sleek design and the cooling is beyond superb. One of the best cases you can get!
Cons: None so far!
Other Thoughts: Only reason to not get this case would be because its big, but then again thats the whole point.
PC CASE: XClio 320 PC case-2012-08-30
Preinstalled with two 12cm fans, the XClio 320 supports 6 optional fans and water cooling system for seamless cooling customization. To meet your extensive graphics processing demands, the XCLIO 320 offers sufficient space to support up to 340mm graphics card. Grab a valued case without breaking the bank.

Power Supply XClio Goodpower 750W-2012-08-30
Just got this XClio Goodpower 750W power supply the other day and haven"t even installed as of yet but really like what I am seeing. Didn"t realize it was partially modular but with the cable management solution that I see in the box see lots of possibilities. Have just a few more things to get before I embark of building my monster but with most of the parts coming from Newegg see nothing but good things on the horizon.
Power Supply: XCLIO GREATPOWER 1200W-2012-08-30
Pros: XCLIO GREATPOWER 1200W has very good quality modular cabling, has very stable voltages, and the fan is very quiet. I have ho zero problems with it in the 2 Months I have been using it with 3 HD"s, one optical drive, 9800 gx2, e8400(overclocked to 4.1 Ghz), 4 Gigs of ram, and 4 large case fans. I love the modular design which is color coded so that you always use the correct rails for stability of output.Other Thoughts: There are more attractive looking power supplies out there but I can"t see any reason not to enjoy the quality and ease of use that I am experiencing with this product. I plan on adding another 9800 gx2 for quad SLI which will easily be handled by this power supply with power to spare!
Power Supply XClio Goodpower 750W-2012-08-30
XClio Goodpower 750W is something special. 80Plus Bronze. It is deathly quiet, so much so that I was worried it wasnt working when I first plugged it in to test it. Quality is what I pay for when I buy components. Functionality and aesthetics are a close second. This power supply encompasses all of those with the power I needed. It"s sturdy, sexy and silent. I would reccomend this to any one looking for a great power supply.

XClio IPC BP1425 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-30
The other reviewers are correct, this item is extremely well-made. Sturdy & comforting. I would have NO problem putting these into high-performance environments. Other ppl complained about the fans, but I can"t hear them at all, and my PC is pretty quiet.
XClio IPC BP1425 (SAS/SATA HDD Backplane Module )-2012-08-30

XClio TR1135BOX (SAS/SATA HDD Mobile Rack Enclosure )-2012-08-30
The two major advantages are one these are inexpensive and two they accept standard SATA drives without any type of drive caddy. This later advantage is huge if you want to use this bay to frequently recover data off of various disks or just don"t want the hassle on an occasional disk exchange. Drive activity lights are nice and work well.
XClio TR1135BOX (SAS/SATA HDD Mobile Rack Enclosure )-2012-08-30
Works, looks nice. Very convenient way to swap drives. Sata 3, disk activity lights function, tray less. Seem pretty reliable. These are really easy to set up.. I like them generally.
Power Supply XClio Goodpower 750W-2012-08-30
I have had this XClio Goodpower 750W for about a week now and it has been on that entire time none stop. I"m a big gamer and i can say that so far there are no issues at all it run smooth and quite very nice. I chose this psu after my a-power 800w died, and this one is considerably more silent. I thought it was doa until I looked at my hdd activity light. Very easy to install. I will buy this same psu for my another build. 80Plus Bronze certified, good!
