5 out of 5 stars life saver   March 8, 2007

I recently bought this Hard Drive case after using one at work and I got one just in time. My laptop motherboard blew up and i had no way of getting the files from my hard drive back. So i removed the hard drive plugged it in the case and plugged the case into my desktop and almost instantly the hard rive popped up allowing me to copy over my files that I thought where gone forever. This truly is a life saver!


3 out of 5 stars Not a long term solution   June 24, 2008

This product is good if you are in a jam where you just need to save a hard drive. It is not a long term solution to keep the hard drive in the enclosure due to it being very cheaply made.

Pros:
Included is the aluminum enclosure, a USB cable with an extra end in case you still have USB 1.1, a mini screw driver to secure one end, and a little slip case for the enclosure.

Cons:
The USB adapter on the drive is mounted in crooked, so when you plug in the USB cable, it comes out crooked. If you are looking to buy this you have at least a mild understanding of computers so you won't need the manual, but read it for fun. There are spelling mistakes, it references two lights on the enclosure when there is just one, and it also references a CD-ROM with drivers on it that is not included, even though you don't need the disc.

I saw another review saying it doesn't have a fan. It does not need a fan because the drive is against the aluminum case, which acts as a passive heater which is completely adequate.

This enclosure is a quick fix to recover some data. I would not keep a valuable drive in this.

This is a very good product it may seem cheap but it does what it needs to.
I had no issues getting it to work just plugged it in and it worked just fine. It comes with all you need to install hard drive.

Here are the pros
1. cheap
2. slim
3. made of aluminum to help get rid of heat
4. works with Macs and windows

I would have a con list but I can think of any



1 out of 5 stars seller was fine, product not   August 20, 2007

bought product and it arrived 2 days later. seller was quick, price was amazing. 2 weeks later after using the enclosure half a dozen times the front part of the case where the drive plugs in came apart. the plastic end came unglued from the board. looking at it i noticed it's only held in place by 2 dabs of glue. now it won't stay back on, even tried gluing it back with super glue but the amount of force needed to pull the drive out is too much even for that since the glue just touches the edge of the pcb board.

i decided i needed a firewire enclosure too so i had already bought another one last week before this came apart on me tonight. like i said, seller was great but the product...well, you get what you pay for. not worth an RMA either as i paid $5.66 for the enclosure and $5.49 shipping. would cost another $5.49 to ship it back for a new one.

Cheap, cheap product. No air flow, case was damaged on delivery and had to stuff the HD into the case, scratching the unit up on all sides. I got what I paid for (cheapest one in the list) - go for a unit with airflow.
