    Very easy to use, there are no small holes, small screws, you just open and close with your bare hands. No need for tools. You can replace / change the Hard Drive inside it very easily.
    Cons:
    The "pouch" that comes with it, as with any onther hard disk cases that you can buy anywhere, is pretty much useless....

    Cheap from cheap material, but works good.

    posted by betax on 11/03/2012 Certified Owner

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

    Pros:
    Easy to use, just put your standard 2,5" HDD (f.ex. from an old notebook) in it, plug it in your computer and you have an external HDD. I have no problems with notebooks and PC-s, Win7, WinXP, and Ubuntu >10s are all recognised it as external harddr...
    Cons:
    Made from cheap metal, it could be easely underlay. The USB-cable included is a little sloppy, I reccomend you to buy http://dx...

    Pros:
    Light and easy to open. Good build compared to price. No tools needed with opening.

    There is no support for HDD in closure. Dropping while in use will surely break HDD. You can try padding it on your own, but en...

    Pros:

    Cons:
    not really a con but the bottom of the case could use a piece of the anti-static plastic because it almost touches the circuit ...

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

    Pros:
    Does what it is supposed to do. It was recognized immediately on winxp. The drive attaches firmly with 4 screws. The case closes firmly and does not alllow the drive to move. Usb cable is good and long enough, I didn't have to use the extra cable but it's t...
    Cons:
    It was hard to open the back of the case in order to screw in the drive. Guys, it goes: Push in the clip, lift, push out toward...

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

    Pros:
    Dirt cheap, works, is red, it doesn't take up very much space as it is barely larger than the drive itself.
    Cons:
    Might be made out of recycled coke cans... Seriously thin and nothing but a little indention holding the halves together...
