Got a small portable gaming system or HTPC that’s running out of space? ICY DOCK is known for their storage accessories, be it internal expansion or external docks. The company has announced an expansion to one of their product lines to allow you to cram even more things into your already packed system.
The ICY DOCK MB994IPO-3SB is similar to the rest of the brand’s MB994 series in that it uses an aluminum body, interchangeable slide-out hard drive trays, and supports SATA III drives. What sets it apart is the addition of a slot for a slim optical disk drive—the same form factor as a laptop optical drive. Given current laptop hard drive capacities, this means 2TB plus a Blu-ray burner can fit in a single 5.25″ expansion bay.
