Does what it should

BYTECC ME-350U2(V3)-BK 3.5" USB 2.0 Aluminum External Enclosure
BYTECC ME-350U2(V3)-BK 3.5" USB 2.0 Aluminum External Enclosure

Pros: The enclosure is all aluminum, seems to be decently constructed, fairly easy to assemble. Also, there were a couple times when I thought I had scratched it but there isn't a mark on it so definitely good quality. Newegg had it to me by Monday and I ordered it Sat. night. As always, excellent service from Newegg.

Cons: The power cord that goes from the AC outlet to the brick stopped working after a week. If you hold the cord a certain way it will work. Definitely a cheap cord and it's pretty short as stated in other reviews. The USB cable is also short but I have a hub on my desktop system and when used with my laptop it is long enough for my needs. The instructions are worthless.

Overall Review: The power cord is a minor nuisance since the connection on the brick is a standard computer or CRT monitor connection. I have plenty of spare power cords that are longer than the original so I'm using one of those now. If necessary, a longer USB cable would be easy to get as well. I only give it 4 eggs because the power cord failed after a week.
