I bought this to save data from a laptop that died. The data was good, just no way to access it. This fit the bill perfectly, and I'll be buying another soon for another laptop death.

I was looking to replace an enclosure i had. Searching online I found this one. The price was great so I went to store to buy it. To my surprise it was available as an open box bringing down my bill even more. It works great and is very easy to use.

There isn't much to learn about this device. Just take the screws out, pull the board out of the enclosure, plug in your drive, and then put it back together again. The USB 3 made a 100GB transfer quick!!

The hard drive enclosure works very well and is very easy to use. Was able to set up the device with a small screwdriver in about 30 seconds. Transfers information better than expected.

The Insignia™ - 2.5" Serial ATA Hard Drive Enclosure is a high-quality item for use with SSDs and HDDs. It is easy to use and includes a small screwdriver to open and close the case cover. When the drive is inserted and closed, the case is very strong and secure. This item also includes a USB-3 connector. This item is very modern and well constructed. It allows use as a backup eternal (hand-held) drive, and the drive can be removed and used for other purposes, such as replacing a non-functioning computer drive.

This is a great value, and it has served me well. I bought it when I was upgrading the hard drive on my computer, and I needed this enclosure to put one of hard drives in as part of the process of transferring the data from the old drive to the new drive. I now use this enclosure, along with the old drive taken out of my computer now inside this enclosure, to hold back-ups of critical files from my computer.

One thing that I like about this product is that everything you need comes in the box, including a small screwdriver. The instructions are simple and easy to follow. I used the screwdriver to open my failed laptop so that I could remove the still-good hard disk. It was easy to connect that hard disk to this device and then close up the enclosure. From there, it is a simple USB plug-and-play connection to another computer, and my hard disk, with all of its files, was available to me again. As noted, this device is designed to work with a 2.5" (laptop) hard disk drive that has a SATA interface.

The hard drive case is excellent for converting an internal hard drive into an external one. Installation is super easy. It took less than 2 minutes to get it up and running. Highly recommended.
