Quality 3.5" Hard Drive Enclosure

    I got one almost exactly the same on eBay for €10. Only the plastic end cheeks are slightly different. It's the usual generic Chinese tat to be honest. It's all right for a tenner and non-critical situations but I'd never rely on it.

    if i were to spend any money I would get one of these - yes a fair bit more but there is the option of being able to use any drive with ease . I got one about a year ago and it's one of the best investments i have ever made.

    here is a similar item for a touch over eur17. I can't comment on the quality, as I haven't bought one. But I might !

    Got one of those two years ago, now in bin, lasted just over the 12 months :(

    Connectivity was hit & miss, never really worked with 2.5" SATA drives & it got all confused if you tried using one of the USB ports with a HDD docked at the same time :P

    Best avoided IMHO ;)
