Description
Turn a 2.5in SATA drive into an external storage device with USB 2.0 connectivity. This external hard drive enclosure transforms a 2.5in SATA (SATA, SATA II, SATA III) hard drive or SSD into the perfect portable storage solution.
Ideal for storing digital multimedia and other demanding applications, the enclosure lets you get the most out of your hard drive, connecting to a host computer using USB 2.0 (also backward compatible with USB 1.1), for maximum data transfer rates of 480Mbps.
Plus, the external hard drive enclosure includes a USB Y-cable, that when both USB male connectors are connected to the host computer eliminates the need for an external power adapter.

Excellent
Reviewed by RichardG891. Review Posted 24/03/2010
Bought it to house HDD from my dead laptop. Rapid transfer rates, well made and cool running. Has a double USB connector to increase power supply to the but works fine from both a PC mainboard USB and a powered hub with only one connected. The instructions also state a HDD size limit of 120 GB. That's what mine is so I can't say if it's just a recommendation not to go above that or if its a definite no no. Certainly at this limit it barely gets warm.
