No Cons at this point

This is a good HDD enclosure. I installed a Western Digital 750GB SATA drive inside, formatted it in Windows 7 64bit Pro, and it's up and running. Simple, so simple a caveman could do it. :-)
Good for backing up your important stuff.

price

fit and finish weren't all that great. Countersunk holes could have been deeper so screws would have been flush.
