ICY DOCK Enclosure ToughArmor MB991U3 1SB Review

I can't express how much I love these things. Very durable, self-contained, portable and FAST. Combine it with a 1TB EVO and a Pelican 1200 case (both available here at Revain - where else?) and you have a complete solution. In fact, I love that the Icy Dock comes with that gorgeous blue high-speed USB cable that's the perfect length. Use your favorite imaging software on a USB drive and secure all your (or your customers') IT resources.

Good solid case. I put in a 500GB SSD and plugged it into a USB 3.0 port. It was not recognized by Windows 10. I tried two other systems but to no avail. I returned it for a refund.

That's a bit of an exaggeration. He justifies his price. About the look and feel. Metal structure with locking of the retractable trolley. This is by no means a slim hard drive case, but it does fit large (12.5mm thick) 2.5" drives. It also works with SSDs. It has enough ventilation holes to cool the hard drive. Icydocks. Used it with EXT4, MacOS Catalina, Win 7 and Win 10. Originally I used it with a Seagate 4TB 12.5mm 2.5 drive but the drive sucked. Now I have a Samsung 2TB SSD.

I bought 3 of these and have worked with a 5TB 2.5" Seagate hard drive with no problems ensuring proper power is available via USB 3.0 standards. Also, make sure your 2.5" hard drive is rated for 5V only.
