4.0 out of 5 stars Cheap and cheerful, 15 Jan 2008

By	P. Alexander "peter_alexander" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This product can be used to take a standard IDE or SATA 3.5" internal hard drive (as found in almost all desktop PCs) and turn it into an external USB drive. It's a simple metal enclosure that screws open to reveal connections for the hard drive and screws to hold it in place. It's a very basic piece of kit. Even with 1st class shipping, it was only �20. It's cheap and it shows. The build quality is hardly inspiring and a couple of panels seem prone to rattling. The cables and connectors make it tricky (but not impossible) to get the hard drive attached and screwed into place. I had to unscrew the circuit board to get the SATA attachments to the hard drive and remove the unused IDE cable to get the enclosure to shut properly - and even then it required a little coaxing to get the cable to lie properly.

Once up and running, it works just fine. Computer (Mac, in this case) recognised it immediately and bish bosh, the cheapest 750Gb of space you could wish for. Just compare to buying a ready-made solution in terms of price. It comes with a proper on/off switch on the unit, which means no faffing to eject and turn off when not wanted. It has a green light for power, which turns red when the drive is being accessed. So, it ticks both function boxes that I consider bare essentials.

In short, not a great design, a bit more tricky to set up than it really should be, but cheap and once up and running, does the job well.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Cheap Solution, 21 Oct 2007

By	R. G. Walker (Hampshire, England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I looked around for a cheap option to use my spare SATA drive as storage and this was the best I could find at a decent price.
Basically it does what it is supposed to do. The cable setup inside the enclosure could be better, and a few pence spent on a stand would have been nice. All the internal and external cables are supplied
It takes 5 mins to open the case, install the drive, reassemble and connect to the PC, you now have more storage.
If the cable management inside was better I would have given this a 5 despite the faulty USB cable and the two pin plug.
