Able to read old hard drives
Pros: Does what it is supposed to to.
Cons: Several pieces that might get lost over time.
Overall Review: I've not used mine, but I purchased it because we have one at work and it does what it is supposed to do. I have some hard drives that I removed from old computers and I want to be sure there is nothing on them before disposing or repurposing.
Replacement for old laptop
Pros: I was able to restore a backup to the new drive successfully
Cons: None that I can think of.
Overall Review: I needed an inexpensive replacement hard drive for a failing one in an old laptop which I need to keep working for another year or so.
Replacement for old laptop hard drive
Original hard drive showed signs of failing but I wanted to keep the computer running a while longer. This drive fit the need. Backing up regularly, I was able to restore to the new drive. The old drive was smaller, so the restore didn't use the entire space of the new drive, but I was able expand the partition. I haven't used it except to test a couple of key applications but so far so good.
