ORICO External Hard Drive Case for 3.5 Inch HDD/SSD 5 Packs Portable Hard Drive Carrying Protective Storage Box Anti-Static and Shockproof (Multicolor)-PHX5C

These HD storage cases are perfect for storing individual 3.5" SATA drives! I bought a set of five cases for my audio recording business. We use several SATA Seagate drives (500GB to 2TB) for multiple recording systems (hot-swappable SATA bays and external SATA Docks), with active project backups and archive. We have several 'inactive' drives at any one time, and occasionally need to transport drives to locations. Until now, we have slipped the drives back into the original anti-static plastic sleeves and stowed them in a foam-cushioned case. Not so great - potential for loose foam pieces, dust, dirt, and secure fit were all concerns. Also not convenient if you want to just take one drive to a location or studio. These cases feature a sturdy construction (plastic thickness and quality is quite good); a good snap latch; good edge seal (wouldn't dunk these in water, but a spill shouldn't be a disaster). All of my drives fit them, though the 2TB drives ARE snug. The cases stack without sliding around from a slight bump of the table/desk. Case label is limited to a few lines, enough for drive name and general description. No space for a long list of items, but you can always keep a detailed list on paper in the case (e.g., print screen of your drive's file browser window). We keep logs of project locations, and just designate Drive Name/Letter. The anti-static/shock matting inside is an excellent feature; it lines the entire inside of the case. The lining is rather firm, not flexible and foamy, so don't expect much soft cushioning... which wouldn't be much protection to a hunk of metal anyway. Granted, I wouldn't be dropping these things, but the quality of construction is reassuring. Very happy with these, and will be purchasing another 5 (or more) cases! Price for the quality of these is fine; much better than sliding your drive into a thin plastic box with ridges and a few strips matting. Definitely worth protecting your investment! Please note: The previous review knocks the rating down to 4 Stars because of the price of the product, actually shows customer pics of the cases... and it's a different model of case. The review needs to be moved to the correct product.

I used to store my bare drives ina box in separate no static bags. I dropped one on a tile floor and caused my drive to fail. This cases are padded and as an extra precaution I use the nonstatic envelope that the drive was shipped in to store it in these containers. They fit great. They aren't lose and fit snug but not too snug with the envelopes. I like these more than the big cases that has slots for the drives because it gives more storage flexibility and doesn't leave the bare drive without protection if carrying from container to drive holder. I'm going to buy another order because I have more drives I need to store. For those that are worried that the hinge is weak because it's plastic I'm here to say it's not. I use this all the time -- open and close, open and close -- and not one has become broken, loose or stretched. It's a plastic case so it's going to be plastic. If you want metal then you're risking that it won't be as gentle if it falls. For instance how many cell phone cases are made from metal? I would rather risk my hinge breaking than my drive breaking. That being said, these hinges are not flimsy plastic but as sturdy as the case. I love this case.

THESE THINGS ARE TOTALLY AWESOME BUT JUST BEWARE BECAUSE I DON'T THINK THE HINGE IS STRONG ENOUGH TO WITHSTAND OPENING AND CLOSING THEM TOO MANY TIMES. IT'S VERY THIN PLASTIC AND YOU WILL DEFINITELY SEE THIS IF YOU PURCHASE THEM. THE LATCH IS FINE BUT THE HINGE IS LIKE PAPER THIN. BUT THESE THINGS ARE SO AWESOME I DON'T CARE. THE INNER FOAM PROTECTION IS QUITE ADEQUATE AND THE SHELL IS NICE AND DURABLE DESPITE THE POOR HINGE. AND THE COLORS ARE AWESOME. AND THEY ARE NOT EXPENSIVE!!!! BUY 10 OF THESE RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!

Mostly a perfect drive case, not cheaply priced but not cheaply made. Nice insert to hold drive securely, boxes are designed to lock together when stacked, and clasp is strong. Only reason for 4 stars is the hinge that's so thin it is translucent. I wouldn't use this case for a drive you'll be getting out regularly. Fortunately mine are for deep archives. If these had actual interlocking fingers with a rod running through them it would probably cost 2x to make, but surely there's something more robust than what's used on here. Seriously, great cases and I hope I'm wrong about the hinge. May never find out because of my use case.

These work well. I have some 3.5" hard drives from old PC's and backup systems that are still usable for storage and redundant back ups. But they needed some place to reside. These are fine for that. The inside have a protective coating and the outside has an affixed label. They do what they're supposed to and the price is fair. I would buy again.

The drives fit perfectly into the cases, and the inside of the case is cushioned for drive protection.

De opbegboxen zijn van degelijke kwaliteit, stevig kunststof met goedpassende binnen voering. Naar mijn mening een goed product.

Those are amazing, it fit the hhds perfectly and it keeps it from moving, there is soft fabric that case absorb shocks inside.. I recommend those

Hace muchos años que tengo los discos de copias apilados de cualquier manera y a veces hasta cogiendo polvo. Con estas fundas, aunque no son baratas, guardo los discos con total confianza, protegidos de pequeños golpes, del polvo y de posibles rayones en las placas de electrónica. Me ha sorprendido su calidad, tienen una espuma compacta y firme que sujeta los discos perfectamente. El cierre es bastante seguro y la bisagra parece duradera para uso ocasional. Son unos estuches muy practicos, no solo guardo discos duros de 3.5 en ellos, se pueden guardar muchas otras cosas delicadas compactandolas con una bolsa de plastico como cargadores, discos de 2,5m cables, adaptadores, etc. Nunca se te quedarán apilados sin usar, siempre puedes guardar cosas en ellos. Me han gustado mucho, y además vienen en colores. Los volvería a comprar aunque cuesten 4 euros por unidad, son tremendamente prácticos.

Custodie di ottima qualita per hard disks con dati importanti

Happy with these
