raidsonic ib wrp201sdb

   RaidSonic has always been amongst the very few manufacturers around the world that have such a wide range of products available in the market and although for the leading manufacturers like Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Toshiba, Philips and others that's not a bad thing for a significantly smaller one that may end up being catastrophic. Luckily thanks to a very good level of quality paired with a good number of innovative products to date that hasn't happened to RaidSonic and i really think that the ICY BOX IB-WRP201SD is a clear reason as to why that is. How many times have you seen a compact device like the IB-WRP201SD that can be used as an WiFi media reader/streamer, USB flash drive, WiFi access point and as a portable battery pack? Of course it's not the perfect device since for example we would like to have support for MKV files but we can't have everything. Regarding the battery capacity we never really reached the 5000mAh mark (we did manage to squeeze around 4000-4200mAh) but to date we haven't found a battery pack that actually delivers on the advertised capacity so this is ok.

 

   No matter how good a product is in the end many consumers judge it mostly based on its price tag and that's yet another thing that I’ve always liked about RaidSonic since they follow a rather aggressive price policy and with a current price tag set at 60Euros inside the EU (Amazon.co.uk) the ICY BOX IB-WRP201SD 4 In 1 WLAN Storage Station offers a very good bang for your buck. Unfortunately RaidSonic products are not really available inside the USA (at least not with equally good price tags) and that's always been one of the things i hope they will get to change one day. Overall the ICY BOX IB-WRP201SD 4 In 1 WLAN Storage Station may not be perfect but it offers many features at a very good price point and that's why it receives our Golden Award.
