PRODUCT COMPOSITION
In typical Thermaltake style, the packaging is sturdy, listing the main features of the dock, and makes for attractive packaging on the shelf.
Inside the box is the dock, a power brick, a USB cable, and an e-SATA cable. No bracket is included, although Thermaltake sells one for a reasonable price.
PRODUCT PICTORAL AND WALKTHROUGH
The BlacX is a straightforward affair. Up front, there's a single button to release your HDD. A blue activity light is on the right-hand side. A BlacX logo and a small Tt logo round out this side of the dock.
