Customer Reviews
A functional external case
The case I received was not the one the seller had advertised but I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt as they have the cheapest case on Amazon and it does it's job.
The installation instructions are in French so they aren't much help but it's not rocket science fitting the hard drive. There were 2 bits of clear plastic that I wasn't sure whether I should remove before I installed my hard drive but I kept them in there.
The only bad point was the case was missing 2 screws. However it stays together fine and as I will be rarely using it, I don't mind. I gave it 3 stars as 1. It's missing 2 screws & 2. It's not the enclosure pictured.
I've added pictures of the "actual" hard drive enclosure.
A Bit like Hammerite...
..it does axactly what it says on the tin.
I had a spare 40GB SATA drive from my PS3 lying around doing nothing. I wanted to make use of it as a portable media drive and this caddy was perfect. It doesnt look cheap, feels sturdy and installation of the drive is easy. It's usually still cheaper to buy a pre built portable drive rather than buying the components seperately but this is ideal is you have a disk unused.
Brilliant!!!
The item is as in the picture, it took me less than 30 seconds to instal a 200GB 7200rpm hard drive into it. it works with both my Macbook Pro and also my Windows Vista Laptop.
its a nice unit to look at, much better than i expected after reading some of the reviews.
would highly recommend!!!!!
