    correct case but connectors too fragile

    The case is of fairly good quality but the connector quickly takes up play and disconnects the drive unexpectedly.
    The cable is a proprietary format so there is no way to change it.

    Unusable

    I bought 2 of these boxes based on user ratings.
    The box seems robust.
    Unfortunately when I connect it to the computer, and try to save files, it disconnects quite often. In my case the cases seem to be sensitive to vibrations, if you touch the case, the usb cable, the computer or even your desk, the drive will automatically disconnect and then reconnect.
    I don't recommend buying it.

    Excellent box and complete product

    I ordered this case to put a hard drive from a laptop in.
    The packaging is top notch - instructions, CD with drivers, there is even a screwdriver to mount the drive in the case. I was able to use it to disassemble the laptop.
    After a few days of use, it works very well.
    I didn't do a bandwidth test, but I'm not looking for any particular performance.

    the box does not work!!!

    None of my computers recognise this box. We have tried to connect it to the different computers in the house (different processors), with no result.
    I would like to have a new one in exchange

    very disappointing

    The case worked very well at first until the day the drive never rebooted, I tested my drive with another case and everything worked.
    Apart from that, the case is as described and well protected. I'm not sure how to remove the stupid software that takes up space for nothing, but it's not a big deal.

    It works

    It's working, that's good enough

    The product is of impeccable quality and inspires solidity.

    The case is light, sober and self-powered, so it takes up little space.

    The USB connection is via a USB 3.0 micro-B cable.

    ;)

    Does not work with Windpws 10

    This box is not recognised by Windows 10. I thought it was the antivirus (Bitdefender) because of the virtual CD, but in fact windows blocks the mounting of the disk. Apparently this is due to a bug in Windows 10.

    Correct box but backup software impossible to remove apart from blowing it up

    The product has an irreproachable quality of manufacture and inspires solidity. The main defect is the automatic launch of the internal software but which can easily be deactivated by removing the internal chip (see tuto on the net). Good product.
