Review: great small cases for spare 2.5" drives - Ok, for the price, it's a really good case. First of all it's like a black anodized aluminum case, just big enough to fit the 2.5" drive. There is like a small rubber pad on the inside that seems to isolate it and hold it in place, nothing else holds it in place on the inside. The electronics plugs right into the sata interface on the drive, and is the other end of the case cover as well. It ships with 2 small screws and a small phillips driver which didn't work well, i used a slightly larger one i had at home and was able to screw it in tighter. Comes with a short usb 3.0 cable, the standard size on both size (rectanguler), plugged it into my laptop and at first nothing. But i forgot, it was from a ps4 so i had to go into the computer management and repartition the drive, and format it, then it worked fine as an external. It comes with with a vinyl like case to carry the drive around. So overall, it's sort of made cheap, but for the price, it's a great little case in my opinion. I noticed the the usb port was a little wonky as i almost plugged it in backwards (thought i broke the connector) but it's still working (tiny blue led shows disk access). Going to buy a few more of these for my extra drives i have sitting around, and the drive is powered by the usb cable as well, so couldn't be easier then that to add some storage to stuff like your tv, blu ray player, to store all the smart tv apps and things, or to your network router as a network drive. So far working well, and formatted as my F: drive. Update: Ok, assembled 4 of these so far. I did read that one person had problems with the circuit board touching the aluminum case. When you attach the drive, and insert it into the case, try both ways, flip it around, i always found that it fit better one way rather then other for whatever reason, but they all assembled fine. None of mine touched the case, BUT, if the 2 screws get loose, i can see the small soldered ends possibly can touch. So what i did, was the cases come packed with like this black foam, i cut just a super thin layer of it, to cover the ends and just shoved it on top, i'll see if i can take a pic and post it, but it's just the foam, i just pushed it on there, super thin layer lol. So far though, i have one on my ps4 pro, i have one on my network router, i'm using one as a small backup for my laptop, these are great so far. using 3 2.5" drives, 2 standard, 1 ssd, 1 hybrid, they all work fine.
Review: They Always Work, Easy To Carry With You, and Not Easy to lose like a USB Thumbdrive. - This is my 3rd Sabrent SATA External Aluminum Enclosure. I can't even remember how long I've had the first two, but I know that I can depend on them to work anytime, any place, and on any PC with an open USB port. Buying a Sabrent enclosure is a no-brainer. Want it to work? Buy this one! Now there are more options than ever so I'm sure you can find one to suit your needs. Think long - Think wrong when shopping for your next external enclosure. Regardless, I will remain a faithful customer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Accuracy in machining is important... at least to the perception of quality.
*by G***N on March 23, 2020*

I purchased this enclosure so I could continue to use the (recently upgraded to SSD) HDD from my PS4 Pro as an external expansion drive. It’s doing exactly that... and doing well at its job. I have but two caveats. I purchased this enclosure specifically because it was aluminum. But one of the two screw holes was not tapped correctly, and the matching screw hole for the plastic end cap does not align well with it. Unfortunately this results in being unable to completely tighten the off screw and close the end cap flush. (See pic) Also, I wish they had included some form of foam insert for the top or bottom of the drive enclosure. The tolerances are somewhat loose, and the HDD rattled around a bit inside of the enclosure. A thin foam insert that I double taped to the HDD did the trick, but it would be nice if they had thought of this. Especially given the somewhat fragile nature of HDDs regarding shock. Overall though, I’m happy with the purchase. It does its job, it does it well, it just doesn’t look or sound as pretty as it it could while doing it.
