I went to look at my cable's box to determine what brand mine is, and i
couldn't tell you. i don't see it labeled anywhere on the box. it is
really cheap, and does an excellent job on any of the debian based linux
distros. My biggest complaint is the very poor documentation, which was
just pictures of the device connected to different drives, but the
pictures were small and unlabeled so you cant tell a 2.5 from a 3.5.
Having bought a couple of the larger, more permanent cases, I prefer one
of those when i can, the smaller the better. however, this is extremely
convenient for flexibility (all ya need is a usb port and a power
outlet) and as long as the drive works, it'll work.
