Review on πŸ”΄ Acomdata Tango TNGXXXUSE-RED: High-Speed USB 2.0/eSATA 2.5" SATA Hard Drive Enclosure in Red by Jesse Diaz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

GOOD PRODUCT! for computers and accessories

Due to the falling price of SSDs, I recently replaced my laptop's hard drive with a 256GB SSD. If you want to switch to SSDs, you will quickly find that you have to secure your SSD, because an SSD does not generally warn of an imminent failure, as a normal hard disk often does. They just die, so you need to be prepared for the worst case scenario. Knowing this, I decided to use the hard drive I pulled out of the laptop as an external backup drive. Of course, I needed a 2.5 inch case for this, so I bought this case. The Acomdata case fits my needs perfectly. The case dissipates heat well. I also like the fact that the hard drive is permanently attached to the case's circuit board when installed, unlike cheaper cases (and even some comparable prices). Performance testing, but I had no issues transferring data with the USB cable (included) or eSATA connection (eSATA cable must be purchased separately). Power and data, and the other is the auxiliary power port. At least in my case I didn't have to use an extra USB power port. Likewise, when using the eSATA connection, I only needed the main USB port for power. I used an eSATA connection when backing up a 27GB SSD and it worked like a champ. I personally think that a USB connection should be fine for most situations (storing pictures, music and videos to free up space on the SSD). ) and I only plan on using an eSATA connection when I need to deal with either a lot of files or really big files like a disk image, simply because I don't want to deal with a lot of cables plugged into my laptop. This case is a quality product that works well at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended!
