Thermaltake BlacX 5G USB 3.0 Hard Drive Docking Station Review

BlacX 5G Overview
The BlacX 5G looks much like the original BlacX or any other hard drive docking station for that matter.  On the front of the docking station there are BlacX 5G and Thermaltake logos.

Looking at the top of the drive you can see a power button and on the right the hard drive release button.  There is a small door that when folded down reveals the SATA power and data connections.

On the back you only have 2 connections; power and USB 3.0.  If we flip the dock over we can see 4 small rubber feet that will keep the docking station in place on your desk.  There is also a small sticker with some information about the drive.
