4.0 out of 5 stars 2.5 inch Hard Drive Enclosure, December 23, 2008
By Thaddius Mumford "Shop Saver" (SAN JOSE, CA United States) - See all my reviews
I purchased this 2.5 inch SATA Hard Drive Enclosure and what I really like about is it's light and comes with a carrying case. I don't know who makes it because there's no manufacturer's name on the box, but it comes from China, there are no assembly instructions and it came with instructions on how to use disk management to create a signature and format an OEM disk but they're written in really bad English grammar. The HDD mount is made of a light silver-colored plastic material but it seems strong enough to safely mount the HDD with four screws and screw driver included. The USB cable includes a Y-connector for extra power if your PC's USB port can't support the drive's power requirements so you'll need two USB ports on your PC to use it if you need extra power to run your drive -- this mostly applies to 7200 rpm drives, not 5400 rpm drives. I purchase a silver colored aluminum enclosure, but the black one also looks nice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works perfectly and easy to assemble., November 19, 2008
By S. Kallshian (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is an inexpensive HDD enclosure so you aren't getting the highest quality available, but it works perfectly and is easy to assemble. I got it for only $7 and it was worth every penny. If you are going to rough up your hard drive you might look for something with a rubberized coating or a single-body design with a screw-in lid. This is a 2-piece top and bottom design that snaps together.

3.0 out of 5 stars It works., August 26, 2008
Functionality:
My 2.5" SATA harddrive had a hard time getting into the case, lack of precision making equipment I assume, but after getting some leverage it went in. Plugged it into my computer (XP), formatted and now use it for school work, and portable applications. All the computers I plug it in to are unable to "eject" it, or tell it to shut off. I have not had any loss of information from "drive write failure" yet, but it may worry some. I think this problem arises because it is powered by USB and there is no on/off switch. Overall functionally is great.
Aesthetics:
The black casing with the silver middle makes it a very attractive casing, with minor smudging.
Quality:
Top and bottom pieces seem strong, but I'm not quite sure I'd drop this 5 feet and expect my harddrive to still work. When I was trying to open it, I broke off an unnecessary peice, (cheap plastic) and the USB cable wiggles up and down easily, but does not come out.
Other thoughts:
Came with useless (to me) CD.
The case for the case is nice, keeps extra dirt out of the casing, I would hope, otherwise it is useless.
Overall: (out of 5)
Functionality: 4
Aesthetics:3
Quality: 2
(Quality for price is right on the mark though.)
Comes down to an overall 3. =)
