Wonderful!
J Dub—December 2, 2011
This item is wonderful, it makes it so you can make your laptop hard drive portable, or you can make any SATA HDD a slave drive on a laptop or desktop, we ordered 2 of them and loved it so much went back and ordered 4 more, the possibilities are endless and you can have numerous slave drives with these, the price is outstanding it comes with everything you need and even comes with the screwdriver needed, we love it Read more

Works great
Josh—April 11, 2014
Surprisingly well made for less that $10 and seems to be working fine. I put and older 100gb drive in it and use it for backups, no problems in the six months or so that I've been using it. Read more

cant complain for the price
ohiomacguy—April 6, 2013
Bought a few of these to keep on hand to use as external cases to backup a few laptops I have. Although one broke, the other three I have worked decently. You have to handle them with care because they are a little bit flimsy but great for the price. Read more

Tough to beat for the Price
Roger McClelland—August 30, 2011
I was skeptical when I ordered two of these external enclosures for less than $5.00 each with shipping. But I was surprised to say the least. All the advertised parts were there, the special USB Cord, the enclosures, the SATA to USB adapter board, screws, even a screwdriver to put it all together. Make sure you are using a normal 2.5" SATA laptop hard drive to insert in the enclosure. This will not accept an IDE, EIDE, PATA drive, only SATA. That being said, it went together as expected in less than 4 minutes. The only issue I had with the assembly process was that there were no pilot holes drilled in the non-adapter end of the cover. Since the screws provided are not the best self threading screws, it would be best to drill two tiny holes in the end without the adapters, so the screws have something to bite into when installed. They do provide little bumps on that end which seems to snap into case, but I wouldn't trust these to hold the hard drive in the case. Once assembled, it functions as you would expect. You do need to plug both USB "A" ends of the cable into the computer, so that the drive receives sufficient power. The other end plugs into the drive assembly. You may need to partition and format the hard drive you place in the enclosure, but that has nothing to do with the enclosure itself. I'll buy more and place salvaged HDD's in them for inexpensive backup solutions. Read more

Its ok
Chris—July 29, 2012
I received this item and while it works, it does not work as well as the other "cheap" HDD enclosure on amazon, even with both USB ends plugged into CPU still had random problems with the CPU telling me to format and the drive just being gone. With the other enclosure this has not been an issue yet. Read more

hard drive enclosure a great value!
Larry—March 15, 2012
after ordering several different products, I finally got one with the connection type that matched the product description and photo. I had my hard drive installed in about 2 minutes and it has worked perfectly out of the box. At this price it is an excellent value and I am completely satisfied. Read more
