I have always liked Case Logic. They make quality, well designed cases. This case is no exception.
After reading through the reviews, it was hard to find one that confirmed whether the new GoFlex drives fit inside the case. I found two reviews after digging. One stated it was too small, the other stated it was fine. I decided to order two (recently ordered two GoFlex drives) and try them out for myself.
They arrived today. Here is what I can tell you.. The drives, out of the box fit snugly in the case. You do not need to remove the connector on the drive either. This applies to putting the drive DIRECTLY ON TOP of the elastic band that is inside the case. Now, if you use the elastic band and put the drive under it, it fits snugly as well. It's not complicated to insert it, just a little different than not using the elastic band. So, with or without the band - the drive fits snugly with the connector attached. I will not use the band because the drive fits perfectly and there is no where for it to bounce around or anything like that.
Now, if you remove the connector on the drive, you will have more room and the drive is not as snug. Using the elastic band is also much easier to use. You have more room to insert the drive and remove it. Use of the band without the connector on the drive again, is subjective. It's up to the purchaser. The drive is secure either way.
On the opposite side of the case is space for storing a cable/connector set. There is plenty of room for both without squishing the case to zip it up. It closes easily and zips up smoothly.
The case is simple, effective and seems very durable. It's a hard case, with a soft interior to prevent scratching the plastic finish of the drives made today and has a soft nylon exterior. This thing is perfect for protecting your portable hard drive while it's in your backpack, messenger bag, briefcase, purse or any other bag. I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend this case!
***PLEASE NOTE*** - The Seagate GoFlex drive would be the absolute LARGEST drive that can fit in this case. Anything bigger than that, will not fit.
I hope this review helps. :)
