Review: Linux-based TVisto Series 3.5" Multimedia HDD Enclosure

Geeks.com sent us for a review an external hard drive enclosure case, the "TVisto Series 3.5" Multimedia HDD Enclosure" (2.5" series also available). But this is not just another hard drive enclosure, but also a multimedia jukebox. And it's running uCLinux, an embedded version of Linux.

The Mvisto looks even better; it appears to be the same hardware/firmware as the TVisto but in a much smaller case. Unfortunately the Mvisto appears to be available in every country except the USA!?

The MVisto is for 2.5" laptop hard drives, which are more expensive and slower than the 3.5" ones.

Alternatively, you can always get the TVisto for 2.5" if you really need something really small. It's linked from the article above.

Also if you look at the specs, seems like TVisto supports more formats... especially in Audio and subtitles.
