💾 2.5 Inch SATA HDD Case - Durable Protective Hard Cases (2-Pack) for SATA Drives" Review

I had a bare drive plugged into the top of the pogoplug and it wasn't a pretty sight - especially the unsteady movement of the drive when the device was moved. These cases have the physical stability fully fixed, fit snugly on the drive, and fit snugly in the docking station. The product image does not show the giant barcode label, sticky adhesive backing and mild solvent you will need to remove it from the case.

Extremely difficult (at least for me) discovery. Booting from a 2.5" HDD or most SSDs was easy enough. Unfortunately, once the drive is installed in the case, the power/data connectors are recessed inside the case and given the size of the access hole, the SATA adapter cannot be connected, leading to my title. Just consider the above Buy this item for its sole purpose.

Great additional containers for my 2.5" hard drives for use in a Plugable Storage System. They're a bit difficult to open, but persistence pays off.

A great way to store spare 2.5" hard drives for a detachable docking station. The removable rubber port cap is a nice touch. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because each drive case has a large product sticker that doesn't peel off cleanly. Luckily I had a sticker (512) to hide the sticker mess and my drive as a 512 to identify GB.

These plastic cases fit the Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex adapter I already have, so I'm able to pack up some spare laptop hard drives and put them in at minimal cost can turn into portable storage. . I had to file a small hole in the protective case to make room for the Seagate adapter. It's very easy to make and doesn't require a lot of sanding.

This is a drive cover, the design flaw is that I can't use it on the docking station without removing the hard drive. The SATA connector is too far in and will not connect to the cover.

Good for the price. This is not a USB interface, so it needs to be installed with a SATA cable. Also, the 2.5 discs need to be supported from the back as they don't fit tightly in the case. There must be a seal to solve this problem. Beware!
