Vasy · 02-03-2008

Hello

I intend to put my old LiteON SHW-16H5S drive in my external case from Vantec NST-525U2. (Its place must be taken by a new Pionner DVR-215BK

)
I just want to know if someone had some experience with this drive in an external case.
I know only that my drive uses 1.5A on both 5V and 12V power line used, and my external case is 1.5A @5V and 1.8A @12V.
So ... it should be no power problem.
Are Lite-ON drives ok to use in external case, generally? What about my 16H5S drive ?
I'm asking all of these because I wouldn't like to damage my drive in someway.
Thanks for your info
