In Hard Drive / SSD Enclosures

It works fine now.

Mine came with a magnetic screw driver. The four Phillips screws that hold the hard drive in place drop through a rectangular slot before they can be fastened into the hard drive. A magnetic screw driver makes it easier. If not, I would set them in place with tweezers. Make sure to slide the tray in using the casing guide or the tray won't align with the case.

I use these for making portable backup storage drives for remote PCs. Just put whatever size 2.5" SSD you need inside, snap the plastic case together, plug in the USB 3 cable, and slide the On/Off switch to On, and you're ready to work. With the plastic case, there's almost zero heat dissipation, so use caution if you're tempted to put a conventional spinning HD in this case. I've done it on a temporary basis, in an emergency recovery setting, but when I do, I leave the top off while using it. Heat build-up with your typical SSD doesn't seem to be a problem at all. I use many of these. They seem to enjoy getting knocked around in your laptop case, and the occasional fall to the floor has never been a problem (unlike the conventional portable USB spinning backup HDs I used before I found these wonderful cases). The top of the case slides on and snaps tightly into place. There seems to be no danger in it accidently opening at the wrong time. It requires two hands and a little effort to remove the top, but it does not require tools.

This is my first SSD enclosure and I'm super satisfied with the form! The enclosure is very secure and rigid. The micro USB doesn't slip out easily from the input. Overall I most likely will buy another.

Easy setup - open slide in drive / place foam backer and close USB3 fast interface

Works on first try.

- Needed 36TB storage pool created from 2x18TB spanned disk array - Easy to setup and format as "one large partition" with MiniTool Partition Wizard

Physical construction: The outer housing consists of a single aluminum extrusion with a through hole into which the inner frame slides in and out from. The extrusion has an elegant, no-nonsense form, strong and finely finished. The frame's latch mechanism is well made and its hook engages with a precisely formed pocket that's milled into the inside of the housing. Performance: This adapter worked flawlessly for the single task I bought it for; to copy the user files of a failing laptop onto another storage medium. Tip: Keep your eyes open when opening the carton. The retaining screw and nut for the SSD's PCB are in a very small envelope.

Easy to use. Love the blue LED.

- Bought one of these over a year ago, works and holds up well. Comes with a leatherette style cover to protect the aluminium case, though it will get chewed up easy depending on how you handle your portable drives - Works at full 3.0 USB speeds quite well. No bottlenecking - Windows 7, 8.1, 10, Linux Mint 19.1, Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 tested and working just fine straight out of the box

Easy to use. Cloned 256 to 512 in less than 20 minutes. No heat issues that I saw.

Lay-flat design makes it easier to use with a laptop when you're on the go. Easy to dock a 2.5" SDD when you want to keep work and personal files secure. Built-in fan keeps SDD cool

Was very easy to set up and worked no problems.

Cheap. No tool installation. I like the blue activity light. UASP feature gave increased speed to the HDD that i took out of a laptop to use for backup
