    Used this product to encase a hard drive that was in a broken computer. I can access all my documents and treat it like an external hard drive.

    This hard drive enclosure was a replacement for one of my hard drives that the port no longer worked. Walked in, purchased, took it home, worked and fit perfectly.

    Need an external drive to rebuild my system whose system drive failed. This allowed me to use an old existing internal drive as an external drive. It worked great.

    This enclosure is well built. I used it to copy important data from an internal hard drive removed from one of my client's computers, and was grateful for its simplicity.

    This enclosure saved my bacon! I had a power outage that cause my desktop computer to crash. I wasn't sure if it was the drive or something else so I looked around for an enclosure to see if I could read the drive from my laptop. Bingo! I had my drive in the enclosure within minutes and was able to get everything off the drive (luckily it was the motherboard that broke.)

    Does everything it says it does, was very surprised to find that it wasn't powered over the USB 3.0, kinda bulky, but works well enough

    The drive enclosure was easily assembled and did the job, as promised. Probably as inexpensive an alternative as purchasing a USB cable for the HDD.

    About 3 months and no issues. I'm happy with this purchase. I have it hooked up to my home server so I use it for network back ups and cloud with a 4TB HD in it.

    A great item if you want extra storage space or even more importantly, a way to get pictures off an old computer that has crashed! Nice item over all.
