Hardware Roundup for Jan. 26

3D Xtreme is taking a look at the Max 4 HDD Enclosure from TT. It includes a seperate power supply and a very sturday chassis. It’s too bad that it doesn’t offer S-ATA support though. Adrian has added quite a few options to his BIOS guide, so definitely head over there if anything related to your BIOS puzzles you. 3D Gameman takes a look at a fairly smaller, but feature packed PSU. The Nexus 350W NX-9003 has many connectors, but only one PCI-E. Of course, who would run SLi on a 350W? The coolest feature of this PSU though, is the security fan that *only* turns on when the sensors reach a certain temp.
