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

    Pros:
    It fix a need! Now I don't need to carry an external HDD with my laptop, now I got it into my laptop. The HDD transfer bitrate is pretty good, it seems SATA interface works within its normal speeds.
    Cons:
    It feels a bit thinner that you may expect. But into the laptop that situation wouldn't be a problem.

    posted by elvenpath on 04/17/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Works just fine. I have been using for the last 4 weeks and no problems happened.
    Cons:
    The holes in the back do not fit the screws for the "hook" that would hold this case in the notebook. So now the case...

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

    Pros:
    Does exactly what it's supposed to do. Fits perfectly inside my laptop. DVD drive's front cover also fits. No loose parts, everything works.
    Cons:
    It's missing a place for one screw so depending on your laptop model you might not be able to fix it properly, on my Asus N53SV...

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Solid design, metal and plastic. I didn't install it though, so I cannot say much more.
    Cons:
    Outer port doesn't match one on the second photo. Therefore I was unable to install it, because this port was not compatible wi...

    Must have when switching to ssd

    posted by Hagenaars on 01/02/2013 Certified Owner

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

    Pros:
    Just a connector with a housing, no electronics in the device, so this device does not reduce the speed of the drive in the cradle. This also means that the device 'just works'. It slots nicely into my asus laptop, but should fit into any other laptop with ...
    Cons:
    Does not have a 'front' which means you have to remove the front of your own optical drive, which might be a bit fiddly.
