    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    The faceplate is removable and easy to change from your laptop but it seems to be difficult to remove the faceplate again. It has the screws included. It fits perfectly.
    Cons:
    Maybe if you have to change the faceplate again it is going to be difficult and maybe you have to disassembly the whole unit to...

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:less than 1 day

    Pros:
    A very good price/quality ratio for this useful caddy. I added a second HDD on my Toshiba Satellite laptop. Just unscruwed the 4 integrated screws on the caddy self and inserted my second HDD, screwed in back. Plug and play (had to reboot my computer, howev...
    Cons:
    I just installed it, so I don't have any cons for the moment.

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    Super cheap, it works as well as the more expensive one you can buy on ebay or in-store locally. The good point is that it is exactly the same thing! It is well built, it has the status led builted in, which is a good feature.
    Cons:
    None at all, I cannot think of a con or a bad point for this product, except maybe the fact that it could have been even cheape...

    Good quality, fits correctly and works :-)

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    I bought two of these cases. Both were of good quality. I used them to install HDDs in the place of the optical drive of a laptop, but they should also fit a SSD drive. The HDD fits nicely in the case. The packaging also includes some screws and a small pl...
    Cons:
    When you attach the front panel of the optical drive to the HDD case there are no problems. However, if you later decide to rem...

    Cons:
    For some reasons the blue activity LED doesn't turn off. It doesn't distract but seems strange. No front panel included (not ac...

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:less than 1 day

    Pros:
    If anything matters when dealing with a 2nd HDD caddy, it's how it fits inside your laptop. Used it on an Asus M50Vn 4-year old laptop, fitted perfectly. I was able to mount the outer panel of my old DVD-ROM on the caddy, so now the laptop looks exactly lik...
    Cons:
    No real cons, but some mentions to be made.

    Pros:
    Cheap Did it mentioned ? Is CHEAP : Same item offered in "professional" Internet stores for 6 times the price, and YES, is the SAME item. Drive is easy to install : Put the drive inside, adjust just one screw and done. Optionally you can use the p...
