Optical BX-500 makes a very good impression. Neither has lost the case, the housing is still trying to make a forced cool impression. Instead of Alien Aero Cool design relies on a pleasantly subdued and serious look that still considered mounted by elements of style does not look boring. Especially was the front panel, which consists almost entirely of metal and thus to high-quality first impression of the housing decisive contribution.
In order not to break the coherent image, the front panel was hidden under a flap that opens by touch. Unfortunately, the flap Aero Cool gave no further locking mechanism so the door does not open automatically, but will be folded up after tapping by hand. Here one would have with a little extra effort can still created a great item to enhance the high-quality impression. Under the flap there are four USB ports, one Firmware and eSATA per port, the reset button and the jack for sound input and output.

His true optical thicknesses reveal the BX-500, but wait until it is plugged on electricity. Then come the fact of the illuminated fan Aero Cool housing to the surface that immerse the body in a red-orange light and decorate the front with a light vortex. The only point of criticism from our eyes in this case is the blue-lit power button, which will not quite fit the otherwise bright red casing.

Conclusion of the BX-500 is an overall positive effect. The goal of creating a cold case has Aerosol passed with flying colors. However, the cooling power is here on the background noise, which can in continuous operation in an otherwise silent room feel quite disturbing - for the office and the living room is the BX-500 does not recommend it. The situation is different for gamers and Tweaked, which can live well with an average noise exposure.
