Housed in a PopCorn Hour C-300 and exists solely to bluray player, this device served its purpose very honorably. RAS for its installation, if not the need to have a specific connection to ply slim drives (SATA port and power supply on the same connector) and screws that go to secure it. In reading, the device is relatively noisy launch of the film, when loading menus etc ... Once past this loading, it is discreet. I do not have enough distance to leave a review of its performance over time but given that it is a "slot in"; it should be less prone to failure than the slim models drawer. In short, my advice for HC use.
