    I had a laptop that reached it's expiration date and they graciously pulled the hard drive from it for me. Thia cas was easy to set up and install. Unfortunately my only option was to format the drive and erase ALL the data that was on it. Fortunately I had already backed up the music (200 gb) I had on it.

    Great case for old laptop HD

    I got this case to use my old laptop 1T HD as a back up drive. It was very easy to set up this internal laptop HD into the case to make a portable drive I can carry with me to back up, or get old files that I store on it, now that I have a smaller, but much faster SSD in this laptop.

    Easy to use hard drive enclosure

    The external hard drive enclosure case was easy to use and allowed me to access my hard drive when my laptop stopped working. My only issue is that you have to unscrew the case every time you need to remove or install the hard drive into the case. I wish the case allowed me to just insert the hard drive like a CD into a CD drive.

    The Samsung 860 EVO hard drive I purchased fit inside the enclosure well - once you figure out exactly how the screws & case work, which isn't entirely intuitive. But it works well once assembled, which is what really matters.

    I had my laptop updated with a new internal SS hard drive and kept my old one. I purchased the insignia cover for it and now use it as my external hard drive. This has allowed me to store pictures and other data on it and not have to use up all of my internal space.

    Almost perfect

    The case is perfect for turning laptop size HDD into portable HDD. The only downside is that the case is just a little bit long and so does not fit into any of the standard size external HDD cases I have. Other than that, it’s perfect!

    Needed an enclosure for an old drive that I took out of my uncle's computer and this did the trick. Quick and easy opening, slide the drive on, close and plug in. Was able to transfer his data and then reformated the drive to use as a spare drive.

    My laptop died and I needed to get information off of it. I bought this, pulled my old hard drive and installed it into this to be able to access the information. My easier and cheaper than going to a computer repair shop.

    This hard drive enclosure was perfect to convert an internal SSD Drive to an external one. The motherboard on my old AIO Computer was dying but my drive was still in great shape... this enclosure allowed me to still use it.

    I bought this to house my laptop drive temporarily so I could get data off and work on the corrupt system. It did great!! It takes about 2 minutes to open, attach a hard drive and close up. As far as my systems go, it was recognized immediately by the system.

    Works great with MacMini

    Yes my header says I use this external drive to power my Mac Mini. The reason for this? The internal drive is too slow. The drive its self it seems well made with metal housing, and a secure connection to my SSD. I have it connected through USB 3.0 and that simple upgrade has been able to speed up my MM by at least double. Boot times are <20 seconds, watching Kodi or a Blu-Ray no issues. Im using it with a PNY SSD, and used EaseUS ToDo Backup to clone the drive. So far its working well if it were to fail out on me <1 year from now I will update my review. Otherwise it does what its supposed to do.

    I needed an external case for housing an SSD while I cloned the hard drive from a PC. Then I was able to swap the SSD and the HDD so that I had a much faster PC and an external hard drive for backups, etc.

    I purchased this enclosure to format an SSD drive and install Mac OS prior to internal installation and it worked perfectly. I was surprised that the enclosure was made of metal as most of the big name brands don't even use that for their products.
