I first used this product to house my new SSD so that I could clone my laptop hard drive to the SSD. Then I put the SSD into the laptop and put the hard drive into this enclosure. I can now use the old hard drive ad an external backup drive.

This is my first external solid-state drive enclosure. I cannot say enough good things about it.
It fit my western digital easy drive perfectly. I do wonder about the proprietary USB C cable but that shouldn’t be a problem unless you’re really hard on your cables. I reformatted my WD Solid State drive that I was using in my Windows PC when I transitioned to Apple MacBook Air. That saved me a lot of money.

7MM Drives do not fit perfect in this enclosure. You will need to use the included foam strip to keep it from rattle. Good throughput on enclosure.

Nice enclosure, supports UASP. Tabs are a little flimsy, I wouldn't want to use this if I was expecting to swap drives frequently.
Nice little feet, I wish it included a type A connector.

Hard Disc Enclosure

The best news is that it assembles and works as represented. It just takes minutes to unwrap it from the box, slide the top open, plug in the hard disc with vibration dampening end bumper ( provided), slide the enclosure top closed, plug the provided cable into the enclosure and computer interface, done! No tools required or used. I highly recommend this product to give your hard disc drive or solid state drive a new life.

Bought this to house the internal HDD from my laptop after upgrading it's storage to a SSD. SATA interface accommodates any internal drive with that connector type to turn it into an external drive. Fast USB-C 3.1 connector for fast data access via USB-C 3.1 type blazing fast interface.

My last laptop broke after many hours of operation; never the less, this casing was the best fit to retrieve the old data and work.
The installation is fairly easy, with no need to use screwdrivers. It uses USB 3.0, which gives high transfer data rates.
The case is very sleek, well finished and it does pay the price Overall very satisfied with the HDD case.

This enclosure is lightning fast. I use it to house the SSD from my previous MacBook Pro that is now being used as the backup drive for my new one. Backups are completed in mere minutes. For the price, it is absolutely outstanding.
