Packaging

The SilverStone MS12 comes in a very nice retail box. On the front there is a picture of the enclosure and lets us know it using a Type-C interface and has speeds of 20 Gbps. Flipping over to the back we have a full list of specifications as well as information on the cooling protentional of the drive.

The front of the box sort of opens like a book and you can get a look at the enclosure before you buy and even more features are listed. Opening the box up and getting everything out we have the MS12 enclosure, a Type-C cable, hex screwdriver, thermal pads, and a set of hex screws.
