Great value - very functional
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

It worked well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The device worked wella dn was a good price. Only thing I would like to see improved, the cord does not go fully in. It functions fine, but I feel like i need to be extra delicate with the cord connection.

Life saver!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Life saver as my 3+ year old HP M6 Laptop died. Was imperative to save the data on the drive. Geek Squad pulled the drive finding it was intact and without corruption. Geek recommended I utilize the Insignia 2.5 Serial ATA Hard Drive Enclosure to make my drive useful as an external drive. This has saved me hours of hunt, find, retrieve from data diluted backup and migrate to my new Laptop. I simply connected by USB provided and migrate as needed. Once I’m done, will save the drive as a portable, slip into my pocket external drive. Setup all managed smoothly by Plug-and-Play. What a life (and sanity) saver!

It is a plain jane holder for my old hard drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does not give any type of instructions of how to use it. I would have thought that because it was a holder for a hard drive that there would be some guidance on how to transfer data, but had to google it.

So easy, works great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Mom's laptop computer stopped booting up, but she still had a lot of files on the hard drive that were not backed up anywhere. I opened up the computer, removed the 2.5" hard drive (laptops are 2.5", desktops are 3.5") to make sure it had a Serial ATA connection. Once the hard drive is out of your computer (or a new 2.5" drive is purchased), just plug it into the enclosure, put the couple screws in, "plug and play" using a different computer to be able to access your files as an external drive. This enclosure worked perfectly, and I'd definitely recommend it to others in a similar bind.
