FIDECO 3.5/2.5-Inch Hard Drive Enclosure Case with Fan, USB 3.0 to SATA Hard Drive for HDD Enclosure & SSD External Hard Drive Case Support 16TB with UASP

This enclosure supports data transfer protocols 0 to SATA. I like the ease of use of the enclosure You only have to open the door, insert the HDD, and you are good to go! There is no noise from the fan, which pulls air out through the grille.
I have a 21-inch display connected to the unit. This was the perfect fit for my three children. In my opinion, there are two. No support is available for either body of the 5" HDD, even when it is connected directly to the motherboard. When standing it up vertically, it gives you There is the possibility of the 5" drive falling off the connector completely (I have not tested this). The default is likely a 3, depending on how much you move it around. It is a relatively straightforward case, involving only about one person Five eighths of an inch wide, while the rotating "feet" are very wide at three inches It is deployed with a 1/4" diameter. There would be a 1-foot gap at this point Between two enclosures sitting side by side, there is a space of 5/8" between them. I find the width of the case sufficient to maintain its vertical position. It appears that the side covers are the only metal components. In addition to this, I have a complaint about the LED bulbs Two colors are displayed on the While the bright upper RED portion remains on to provide power, the lower YELLOW portion is blinking to indicate the transfer of data. There is a lot of red under the yellow power section, making this yellow difficult to see. I suggest the "busy" indicator be given a more contrasting color (green? )I like this enclosure in general, although it could be refined a little bit more There is a clip that can be adjusted to secure the hard drive. The LED indicator has a red / green light. The deployment of the feet results in a narrower footprint. If you're going to call it an aluminum enclosure, make sure you have more aluminum in there.

A few good things to begin with. hard drive called the Western Digital Black 7200 that runs pretty hot when not in use The run in this one is nice and cool. There is nothing I can complain about. xbr>
I would like to suggest the following to the A foot can be seen on the bottom. The place should have vents rather than feet. If I were to stack hard drives together, a side air vent would allow me to maintain a comfortable temperature. A 5 would be a good rating if this is done.

I just received it, so my review is merely based upon my first impressions. 3 mounting

The mounting of 3 is complete. This would probably work with 90% of all hard drives, or at least they should, but my hard drive is a Seagate Exos 10TB with screw holes that are wider than average. While the front set of stand-offs work fine near the connector, the rear set did not align with key holes in the carrier so I just used the front set of stand-offs. I should be able to handle the enclosure safely as long as I am careful. Additionally, as others have noted, there is no spacer or clip between the end of the drive and the case, which could result in the drive falling backwards and disconnecting. I will be using soft foam or something similar to wedge The enclosure cannot be used with 2 but would not recommend it. Two-inch stand-offs cannot be attached to the supplied screws because they are too long. The SATA connector on the 5" drive makes it easy for the drive to come loose from 2. You can use it if you want. If you are using a 5" drive, then you will need to apply some type of wedge material. There are some negative aspects regarding the product, such as the misleading representation by the manufacturer.

Another downside is the power supply seems anemic, rated 12V @ 2A but it functions. It's good news that the fan is helping reduce the temperature of the drive. I was previously running the Seagate Exos (which is an enterprise class drive) in an aluminum enclosure that was vented but not actively cooled. Idling and light usage usually resulted in a temperature of 40C/104F for the Exos. In general, it's okay to use it only with 3 if you only intend to use it that way. The drive size is 5". As a result of the just discovered 2, I initially gave this enclosure 4 stars, but pulled 1 because of the just discovered 1. There has been a "5".

I love how it takes up less than half the space and looks twice as nice. It is also silent and adds a cool touch to my room. A blue "on" LED becomes red when it receives data, and the off button is easy to reach. In backing up all of my files, the 1TB drive has almost reached half of its capacity. This is why Windows keeps complaining about not having enough room to back up!.

This bracket has an elongated slot & amp a flat back Fixing the problem with a screw would be more effective. For something that only needs to be opened once in a while, the cabinet door cover lock is not a big plus. 4 HDD shoulder screws were found in the box to hold the HDD up on the keyhole slots inside the enclosure, eliminating the need for an L bracket and the need to attach it to the enclosure. A spacer made out of Styrofoam.
