Review on πŸ“¦ FIDECO 3.5/2.5-Inch Hard Drive Enclosure Case with Fan, USB 3.0 to SATA Adapter for HDD & SSD External Hard Drive - Supports 16TB with UASP by Marc Tufa

Revainrating 4 out of 5

3.5 " hard drive enclosure, USB 3.0 - SATA Aluminum External hard drive enclosure with integrated fan

The enclosure is very easy to use - just open the door, insert the hard drive and you're done! Quiet and blows air through the front grille. The device connected to my 2017 21.5" iMac with no problems. It fits my 3.5 inch hard drive with plenty of space in the front. My 2.5" hard drive is plugged in directly but NO SUPPORT for the hard drive enclosure. If you stand it up vertically, the 2.5-inch drive can fall completely out of the bay (I haven't tested this possibility). If you move it frequently, the 3.5-inch drive can stick out far enough to disengage from the connector. The body itself is about 1-5/8" wide and the rotating "legs" are very wide and rotated 3-1/4". This would leave a gap of about 1-5/8" between two adjacent cases. I find that the case itself is wide enough to hold the device upright. I'd really like a moving clip or bracket on it Note the drive is in place once plugged in. I'd also like to see more aluminum - the only metal parts appear to be the side panels, the RED part stays on for power while the bottom YELLOW part blinks to indicate data is present The yellow color is very difficult to see under the bright red power supply It should have a more contrasting color for the "busy" light (green?) Overall I like this case but it could use some Need improvements - an adjustable clip to hold the hard drive in place, red/green LED indicator, narrower footprint with legs extended, more Aluminum, if you want to call it aluminum Tin case!
