SABRENT USB 3.0 (USB-A) Enclosure for 2.5" & 3.5" SATA HDD/SSD – Tool-Free, UASP, LED Indicator, Plug & Play, 12V Power Adapter & Cable Included – External Hard Drive Case for Windows/macOS/Linux

Very easy to use, simply plug and play. Very good quality and works well with my pc. Price is good and power efficient, also compact size.

Excellent hard drive enclosure. I used this to house a WD Green 3T hard disk that I rescued from a failed WD My Book. The drive was easy to install and works perfectly. This was the perfect solution to save a good disk trapped in a failed backup device. Highly recommended. Definitely recommend to a friend.

It works as advertised. It is a valuable buy. It is compatible with a 3.5" SATA HDD/SSD disc as advertised. I have had it for about 6 months and have not had any issues with quality so far.

I changed my satellite service and had a 3.5 4TB SATA Western Digital that was non-compatible with the new receiver. I decided to change it to a USB Drive. I purchased the Sabrent enclosure. It's solid metal made and simple to assemble. The instructons are quite detailed, but small to read. I photo copied and enlarged them. I used disk management to finalze the disk. It's quiet. The LED serves to indicate that the disk is writing and functional. I then created a backup of the computer files and a Window Image. I have 151 GB stored on the disk. The second disk was a 250 Gbyte Seagate. It was made operable and after reassembly, was installed as an exterior drive for a DVR. An excellent tool for converting disks and resolving problems.

This enclosure is all that. I have more than one drive I use it with so I left the cover off. It does have screws that hold the cover if you need them. Ease of use? You almost don't directions which are provided. You just insert the drive at the most shallow angle you can and it just goes right in no fuss. Power it up with the enclosed adapter and plug it in to your USB port. I've used it on drives out of a desktop that gave up the ghost and was able to access everything. If you need to take it somewhere, it's lightweight and portable. Recommend.

About as small as can be and hold a 3.5in drive, full speed with a WD Red Pro 18tb (280MB/s) and around 45C while doing surface scan. Would have preferred there was more airflow, but it is perfectly safe to use. Same with feet on the bottom, but that's cheap to add after. A little fiddly to get a 3.5in drive out, but if you're looking to swap more then probably better to use another type of enclosure. This is more for turning your drive into a mobile fixed disk. Nice drive enclosure!

works better yhan intended, no problems

There are really only three drive enclosures. 1) $25 SABRENT USB 3.0 Enclosure using the same cable and port supporting 3.2 USB, this cheap everything 3.0 controller falls to 25X slower USB 2.0. Well made, highly rated, and popular but you get what you pay for. 2) $60 prosumer CENMATE 2 Bay USB 3.2 Gen 2 with upgraded everything BUT power (sigh). It's a true cage, but barely. Needs better power. Under heavy load, voltage ripple can cause disconnects or throttling. 3) $150 TERRAMASTER D4-320 4bay USB 3.2 Gen2 has premium everything. You can pay more than double but you can't get more. Most popular best buy. You can run multi‑TB formatting, parity rebuilds, and multi‑drive workloads without the controller or power collapsing. Out of two dozen drive manufacturers, only three remain. I just bought found 2013 old tank Toshiba 3Ts for this (and a new Seagate Ironwolf 8T) and I don't expect to buy HDDs again in my life (large SSDs are ridiculous today). I bought mine directly as cheaper than from Amazon. 4) $195 Synology 2-Bay DiskStation DS223j is an example of paying more and getting less than TERRAMASTER D4-320. Underpowered ARM SoC, slow bus, network, everything. As a NAS, maybe for light use. As a DAS, it is inferior to the TERRAMASTER. I kept the SABRENT. I returned the Synology.

Mi experiencia de uso He instalado un disco duro en esta carcasa de Sabrent y el resultado es excelente. Lo primero que destacaría es que está fabricada en aluminio, lo cual no es solo por estética; se nota que ayuda a transmitir y disipar mucho mejor el calor del disco cuando llevas un rato transfiriendo archivos grandes. La instalación es muy cómoda. El disco encaja perfectamente sin necesidad de herramientas, aunque el paquete incluye un kit de fijación por si quieres dejar el disco totalmente inmóvil dentro, lo cual me parece un detalle de calidad. La conexión con el ordenador es inmediata y las velocidades de transferencia son muy buenas, aprovechando bien el puerto USB 3.0. Un punto que agradezco mucho es la función de "auto-sleep". Cuando dejas de usar el disco por un rato, la carcasa entra en modo reposo automáticamente. Esto es genial para no tener el disco girando y desgastándose sin necesidad si te olvidas de desconectarlo. Pros: Cuerpo de aluminio que mantiene el disco fresco. Montaje muy sencillo pero seguro. Función de reposo automático para alargar la vida del disco. Buena velocidad de transferencia. Contras: El cable que incluye es algo rígido, lo que puede hacer que la carcasa se mueva un poco en el escritorio si no tienes mucho espacio. Veredicto: Una compra totalmente recomendada si buscas una carcasa resistente y fiable. Por el precio que tiene, la calidad del aluminio y el buen funcionamiento de la conexión la hacen destacar sobre las de plástico barato.

Agréablement surpris par la qualité de l'article. Ayant tester plusieurs boitiers hhd externe, celui-ci est vraiment de qualité supérieure et est très bien conçu. Possibilité de visser son disque dur au boitier et bien sûr le bouton de fermeture du boitier qui a fait que j'ai acheté cet article. Chargeur de qualité, idem pour les cables, support plastique dans un boitier aluminium (excellent contre l'électricté statique et le refroidissement). Reçu 2 jours après ma commande. Que du bon pour cet article, merci.

Das Produkt ist sehr leicht und lässt sich gut transportieren. Die neue 22 TB WD Red Pro Sata Festplatte brauchte nur initialisiert werden und war dann sofort einsatzbereit. Die Daten wurden mit einer Durchschnittsgeschwindigkeit von 100 MB/s geschrieben, zu hören war dabei gar nichts, absolut laufruhig und leise. Das Gehäuse macht einen guten Eindruck, die Festplatte passt haargenau hinein und hat null Spiel. Ich habe 3 TB über Nacht übertragen, dürfte um die 8 Stunden gedauert haben. Zur Haltbarkeit kann ich noch nichts sagen, es war der erste Einsatz. Klare Kaufempfehlung und 5 Sterne.

It is easy to set up, has a manual power-switch (which allows it to survive power outages) and handles very large drives. The case is well made, precisely machined and fits together cleanly. All required tools are included (really not exactly tool-free). This checks all of the boxes where so many others cut corners - would buy again.
