Introduction

I would like to thank Caseking for supplying the review sample.

The Akasa Group of companies was founded in 1997 with offices in Taipei and London. The brand Akasa was launched in 2000. Akasa have been at the forefront of the Custom PC revolution, with the introduction of Extreme Coolers, for the overclocking fraternity, quickly followed by aerodynamic round cables and PAXmate sound absorption kits. These Akasa PC products are retailed through the leading on-street companies, they can also be found at the major e-retailers.

Akasa now has outlets in Asia Pacific, Middle East, Northern & Southern Europe, USA and South America. They have a production facility in China and OEM many products for leading brands.

Today we get to take a look at a product simply called "Baymaster". There is only one package, but Akasa includes everything for beige or black systems:

Features

• 2.5” SATA HDD / SSD dock
• 4-slots memory card reader
• Choice of fascia colour
• Hot Swappable for quick HDD docking
• All capacity HDD supported
• SDHC compatible

Packaging

The Akasa Baymaster ships in a very compact, full-color package. The front holds an image of the unit itself, but there is no obvious mention that a beige front is part of the accessories. This may be confusing for some buyers, who are looking for that specific one.


A plastic tray holds the Baymaster in place. This is an affordable and effective way of packing the unit.
