Kingwin KF-25 Data Dock

     Kingwin, one of the most innovative companies in the PC accessory market, has a very interesting product out called the KF-25 Data Dock. The KF-25 is a USB device that installed in an open floppy drive bay and contains two removable ports or drives. The KF-25 comes with one 4-port USB drive and one 2.5" removable notebook drive for mass portable storage.

     The KF-25 comes with everything you need. It even comes with a handy carrying case for the removable hard drive.

     The KF-25 is USB driven, but it doesn't plug into an external USB port in the back of the case like some cheap devices. This one actually plugs into an internal USB port that is found on most motherboards.

     From the image above you can see that each bay ejects by a push button on the left side. Since each bay is USB, they can be interchanged or swapped out with other drive bays of the same make.

Here we have the inside of the 2.5" hard drive bay. The case will house any standard ATA laptop hard drive.

Conclusion

     Although there isn't much to this device, it is still one of the most innovative products I've seen in a while. I love the interchangeable drive bays. I also like the fact that it installs in an empty floppy drive bay since most tower case have at least one or two extra floppy bays doing nothing but taking up space. The quality of the device is also very good.

     The KF-25 isn't just another useless add on that just takes up space. Personally, I find the KF-25 extremely useful and the price is just right. Another great Kingwin product!
