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

I originally had a WD Blue 1TB 7200rpm drive in this type, 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 as the storage device for my photo editing equipment. 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

Don't waste too much time

Cons

Not as thick as the other options
