The assembly of this worked very well. I was impressed with the dual USB cable you get for both power and data. Some ext drives have an independant power supply but you do not need that for this one. Also the HDD is secured inside because it's packed in tight. Summary, cheap,, small, quick and useful.

I've been upgrading my laptop hard drives and therefore had a few drives around. These enclosures seem to fit the requirement and I haven't been disapointed. The drive plugs in to the connector, you slide the enclosure parts together and then use the two screws and your done. The screws are tiny so can be a bit fiddly. I now have four of these and they prove really useful for backups or transferring files around. These are an easy way to reuse a disk and I've not had any problems with any of the four I have. Only one word of warning, they do work with SSDs but the Crucial disk was a tight fit and didn't want to leave the enclosure when I wanted to remove it - "normal" drives have been fine.

This product worked really well. I had a asus note book failure which resulted in some files and documents that I needed in a hurry.
I suspected the main mother board had failed and that I needed to get the info from the hard drive. I ordered this product and it arrived the next day, well worth the extra two quid for 1st class delivery etc...
The packaging was good and the product inside was also in good order.
It arrived with instructions and leads and a little screw driver.
The case was good and solid, I did not have to read the instructions or load the cd.
I simply opened the case, inserted the hdd 2.5 drive, closed the case, used the screw driver and screws to secure drive and casing, inserted the USB lead and plugged into another computer.
This product was USB 2 and 1 which was handy as old computer was usb1. Drive was instantly recognised and I copied over all files to other computer. Did not need other USB power lead. Did not load cd software. Glad I did not get cheaper option of other products on offer. Also glad I did not go to maplins.
I will now format the hdd drive and use it as a 160gb spare USB portable drive......comes with nice black leather case as well.
Got me out of a lot of trouble at work retrieving data etc....good turn around by amazon and product supplier and maker etc...

useless
did not work, thought it was a waste of money and it did not back up my work. It was so hard to put together as well.

not as good as expected
there isn't even a single screw to fix the hard disk with enclosure. Seems like it will fall apart anytime.

Great Product
I was a little skeptical as the price was so low but totally unfounded. This product is great. Comes with everything you need. Pop the drive in and away you go.
