Review on πŸ“ ORICO 3.5inch Tool-Free Hard Drive Enclosure - Portable Transparent External Drive Enclosure for 2.5/3.5 SSD/HDD - Up to 18TB, 5Gbps Transfer Rate by Sarah Felder

Revainrating 5 out of 5

much room for improvement

where to start. It has ZERO ventilation, it only has spacers for the front and back of the hard drive. The top, bottom and both sides can freely touch the case, but this does not prevent the hard drives from directly bouncing relative to the top and bottom. Keep the disc steady, but not long enough to store and move it. As for the sliding cover, it's unnecessarily difficult to open and close, and when closed, one of the two corners on the SATA side always seems to want to stick out of the rail.edit: the SATA connector inside is deep enough in the case, The only way to connect or remove a hard drive is to press firmly on the hard drive to lift the data connector and circuit board. The biggest design flaw. Finally, there are no feet on the case to prevent slipping, just two very separate strips of glazed plastic that are more cosmetic than functional.

Pros
  • many will do it
Cons
  • expensive insurance
