Review on Sabrent 2.5 Inch Aluminum Enclosure: Ultimate Protection for EC MSSA Drive by Joshua Follansbee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Would buy again. at Cables & Interconnects

The drama I read about this device was disturbing, but the price is worth the risk. Yes I have seen pictures of the DC-DC circuit where it has been destroyed and the pins have melted. away, no matter how convincing it looks, this device can't have this kind of damage without an external direct short, be it an extended screw the consumer used or some other modification outside the case. In my 50+ years of experience repairing consumer electronics, whenever a device appears to have sustained damage that I have seen in the pictures in that device's poor quality reviews, an outside force has been the primary cause. Although my expression of questionable reviews of this product is based on experience, it is this experience that indicates poor workmanship in soldering this entire device (an example is shown in the image provided). This does not mean that this is not the case. Quality product, it works and installs with no problems, please note you will probably need access to your bios for it to be recognised, but I did nothing on the bios screen except close it again and the samsung evo860 worked perfect. I asked the seller about a component (F3) that was very badly soldered and was assured that if there was a problem, a replacement would be sent. Conclusion: The product works; the product was easy to install; the product has value; would buy the product again.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
