    I am disappointed in the fact that my enclosure will not operate properly when plugged into my 3.0 USB slot on my computer. I have searched for solutions to resolve this issue to no success.

    I bought this to put a 1tb hard drive in to use as a backup for my mac. I could get it to work on a pc but it would not stay visible on my mac. This, even after reformatting the HDD multiple times to every option available. I finally returned it to best buy.Even Geek Squad didn't have an answer for that.

    Bought this case for my dead laptop, but my hard drive still worked so I bought this case. And it sucks. I can't even transfer any files before I get an error message. What a waste.

    This item did not work for me. I had installed a new drive into this enclosure with the intent to image the old drive to this one. The image software kept failing. Viewing the Windows storage manager, I discovered that the drive volume kept appearing and disappearing on frequent intervals. I returned this item and bought a different enclosure. The imaging software then worked flawlessly.

    Would be fine for most computers. Now with the flash drives getting bigger memory, it may not be useful to put old hard drive in this enclosure
