Review on Hoydaa Tool Free Enclosure Optimized Compatiable by Cindy Plant

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Affordable clear case to show off your drive.

Hoydaa 2.5" SATA Clear Enclosure is a tool-free transparent enclosure that is very easy to use. Just hold it upright (USB port facing you), gently press down and push forward to open Top plastic panel Insert any standard hard drive or SSD up to 9.5mm thick and slide back the top plastic panel Enclosure uses a USB micro B connector and includes a mating USB micro-B connector for the USB A cable, as the case is transparent, the SATA controller (Initio INIC3639) can be seen on the device's circuit board.The transparent 2.5 -inch SATA enclosure from Hoydaa is a USB 3.0 device and works with USB 3.0 (4.5 W) power and transfer data (up to 6 Gb/s). s) At full load, it consumed up to 3.88 watts with a mechanical hard drive I have a 5 year old HGST 7200 RPM hard drive atte used for the power consumption test rebleniya, as tested drives. The WD 5400RPM drive consumed less power, while the Intel SSD consumed three times less power, only 1.26W. daa 2.5" transparent SATA enclosure won't break speed records, but it's no fool. I was able to get an average read speed of 45.4MB/s and a peak speed of 89MB/s with the hard drive while transferring 15GB of mixed files (docx, mp3, mpeg, mp4, jpg, txt, pdf, etc.) It was able to achieve write speeds of 391MB/s with an average speed of 327MB/s when using an Intel SATA SSD connected to a USB flash drive 3.0 port Using the faster USB C 3.1 or USB C 3.2 Gen2 didn't give better results. I dropped the case a couple of times off a 20" table with a hard drive in it. The case bounced, the drive stayed in place. Don't drop the case, especially if a hard disk is installed in it. The drives will be slightly colder in a metal case than in this plastic case. After installing a 9.5mm hard drive, it was very difficult to open the case. This is because the cover needs to be pushed down to open, but the hard drive won't allow it. In this case, you may need a tool to open it.
