Review: Mieux que le ZALMAN equivalent ! - Fan depuis le début de ces boitiers "couteau" suisse avec le montage automatique des .iso, c'est un plaisir de dépanner les PC des amis. J'avais un Zalman VE200 (eSATA et USB 2.0) que j'ai passé à un ami entre-temps, et je suis passé à un VE-300 (USB 3.0) : depuis le début, il n'a JAMAIS pu fonctionner en USB3.0 ! JAMAIS. J'ai utilisé 3 câbles différents, tous types de contrôleurs (des balbutiants contrôleurs tiers, aux contrôleurs Intel natifs, puis AMD actuels en AM4 etc) => JAMAIS PU FAIRE UN TRANSFERT EN USB 3.0 Avec cet IODD : j'ai transféré mon HDD directement dans le boitier, tout fonctionne à l'identique, sauf qu'évidemment, l'USB 3.0 fonctionne partout, même en boot etc ; quel bonheur. IODD est le fabricant initial il me semble, Zalman n'avait fait que rebadger, mais je ne sais pas comment ils ont réussi à faire moins bien que l'original... => génial! Review: Maravilloso invento - Tenía una cantidad de imágenes ISO y cada vez que necesitaba una tenía que instalarla en un pendrive para usarlas. Hasta ahora!! He copiado todas esas imágenes a un disco duro SSD que compré y santo remedio. He probado con ISOs de varias distribuciones linux (arch, lubuntu, deepin, etc), android (AOSP, x86, Plasma, etc), forenses y windows y con todas he podido iniciar diferentes dispositivos. Incluso con imágenes de pendrives y también ha funcionado. También he probado a leerlo como unidad USB y como CD una vez iniciado el sistema operativo y sin problemas. Realmente ha sido una compra fenomenal para mí. Ahora puedo probar cual distro va mejor en un equipo simplemente seleccionado la imagen ISO al iniciarlo. Si te ha resultado útil, espero que dejes tu voto :-) ## Features - Recognized as Bootable ODD which can be used as DVD, Blu-ray Rom for booting by selecting a ISO file. - Write protect Blocker/WinToGo/AutoSleep/Safely Removal/Firmware Updater - Recognized as Bootable HDD for Windows 8,LInux,Mac OS.

Initialize drive as MBR.2. Format the first partition as NTFS or FAT32 or EXFAT. (There are two kinds of firmware, one for NTFS, the other for FAT32 and EXFAT)3. Make '_iso' folder in root dir on first partition.4. Copy *.iso or folder tree to the '_iso' folder.5. Do safely removal. (essential)6. Replug USB. **Q: Is there a file limit like the ve-350 has?** A: I don't know ve-350. IODD-2531 supports unlimited folder tree. (as http://en.iodd.kr/wiki/index.php/IODD-2531#Basic_function ).but the 32 files limit in a folder exists. **Q: Is it possible to plug this in a win 10 pc and only have it be detected as a cd rom drive as opposed to windows detecting a storage volume & /cd rom?** A: Yes, if you hold the jog switch Up while you plug it in, it will be connected in CD only mode. I use this to keep myself from wiping the drive during Windows installs. LOL The jog switch and function button make it really easy to choose options when plugging in. **Q: Will this device boot under uefi?** A: I use it for bootable images on UEFI computers. You have to configure the BIOS to boot from an external optical drive of course, which means you have to be able to get to the UEFI settings screen. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mieux que le ZALMAN equivalent ! *by A***N on 5 July 2020* Fan depuis le début de ces boitiers "couteau" suisse avec le montage automatique des .iso, c'est un plaisir de dépanner les PC des amis.

I have found this very useful as I have a lot of ISOs from Windows/Linux builders to Rescue Media recovery tools that I may need when I work. Rather than having about 20 USBs I can store all my ISOs in one place. This VHD has not had an issue since I bought it. The wheel to select/lock in ISOs is very intuitive. I use a Samsung evo 860 1TB SSD and had no issues getting the ISOs recognised when placing then in the _iso folder. Never had an issue with "ghost" isos if I deleted them. The Micro USB B to USB 3.0 cable originally provided is still in good, working condition and I have travelled quite a bit with this device. Only minor issue I have with this product is the Bootable VHD device does not lock into the case provided so detaches from the case if you grab it from the top but if you switch around HDDs/SSDs a lot I think this would be a positive. ## Frequently Bought Together - iodd Iodd2531 - USB3.0 - HDD - SSD - Virtual CD-ROM - Enclosures - Made in Korea … (1 Unit/lot) - Samsung 870 EVO SATA III SSD 1TB 2.5” Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77E1T0B/AM --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/339521560-iodd2531-black-usb3-0-hdd-ssd-virtual-cd-rom-enclosures](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/339521560-iodd2531-black-usb3-0-hdd-ssd-virtual-cd-rom-enclosures) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
