External Hard Drive Enclosure USB 3.0 to SATA Docking Station for 2.5/3.5 Inch SATA I/II/III HDD SSD with USB A/C Cable, Up to 22TB, Support UASP Automatic Sleep Function Tool-free (TCC-S8)

cheap but very good

It's cheap...so not wonderful. However, it works perfectly so I can't complain.

Everything working perfect

Great USB3 enclosure. Purchased this to plug into my NAS. It works just how I wanted it to. Used for storing video files and automatically goes into sleep mode when not in use, saving power and wear on the hard drive. Detected by all devices on the network and will play 4k video on my android TV via VLC without any problem.

God stuff but I think a little more thought into the lid and make it open like a hinged lid would be better. Saying that it works super fine and I only have the one hard drive to use in it so I will not be swapping it it for any other hard drive. WELL WORTH 5 STARS IN MY OPINION. Seems to work really quick too on the USB 3 and I use a Western Digital Green in this. The only problem with a Western Digital Green is that it keeps powering down after a few minutes and then takes time to spin up again but there is a way to stop this in power management. However that is nothing to do with this unit it is a Western Digital thing to save on power.

Did the job perfectly only a little cheap feel to plastic

My desktop died recently - but it was clear that the two drives in the old desktop were still working and contained lots of photographs etc., which were not backed up elsewhere. In particular I wanted to be able to use my old hybrid drive - without having to go to the hassle of installing it in another computer. Looked around at various options to convert the old internal drive to an external drive and decided on this value option. Arrived next day (isn't Amazon Prime great). Read the instructions - opened the cover - inserted the drive - closed the cover (opening and closing a little bit fiddly) and connected it to one of my computers - where it was instantly recognised. Fully operational in two minutes - with access to everything saved on the drive. Now my old (non portable) internal drive has become a portable external drive - what more can you ask - and all at a very reasonable price.

Easy to swap drives and no problems so far. Cannot comment on the 'sleep mode' function, as I only use it long enough to run any backups I need. Certainly a much better option than buying a normal backup drive.

Excellent item easy to use, great quality and value 10/10.
