Review on πŸ”’ StarTech.com 3.5in Silver Aluminum USB 3.0 External SATA III SSD / HDD Enclosure with UASP - Portable USB 3 3.5" SATA Hard Drive Housing (S3510SMU33) by Terry Reed

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent build quality, fast UI - not too hot or noisy.

I first had a WD Blue 1TB 7200rpm drive in this guy, it worked great even though it sat quite noisy on my wooden table. I recently replaced this drive with a WD Blue 4TB 5400rpm drive for my photo editor. MUCH QUIETER. I didn't notice the drive overheating when writing hundreds of GB of files. It's good. USB 3.1 is fast - UASP makes a significant difference in speed as other reviewers have pointed out. Also, this case looks awful!

Pros
  • handy thing
Cons
