Review on Syba Adapter Optical Drive Components by Ryan Bennett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm a bit worried about the 2.5 inch hard drive door. (Also information on the scope of delivery)

The door always pushes outwards. Big concern that the very small lock that keeps them closed will break. (Though I'm concerned I haven't seen a reviewer say this.) Other than that, everything works very well. I wasn't clear what cables were included: It comes with a SATA cable (for the hard drive enclosure) and a power connector (if available. I understand it MUST be used to power the enclosure's LED hard drive) . that the thin optical drive you choose can be delivered. Also, this is for the older "thin" optical drives found on laptops. Now the ODD in laptops is a newer, even thinner you change. (So check the stains. Not sure if the thinner will work for you.)

Pros
  • Inspires trust
Cons
  • Factor set
