Review: Beyond what I expected...great! - Keeps your valuable drive safe and secure! I had originally got this just as any old enclosure. I didn't really care too much about the rugged/waterproof features. But after actually receiving it, I'm actually really impressed with the durability and stability of this case! The inside has a heavy rubber encasing that surrounds your entire drive. The front and black plates have two small adhesive foam pads to further stabilize the drive. 6 screws holds it all together. And then the entire outside edge is once again encased in a thick rubber buffer. The attached USB is SUPER handy. No more finding cords or carrying them with you, its just right there when you need it and tucks away into the top when you don't. It's just snugg enough to not come out unless you WANT the cord to come out. And I even gave the cord a few really good tugs to make sure that it was actually attached securely to the chip-mount, and there isn't any movement at all. Not to mention I actually think this case is the coolest looking enclosure I've ever had. Sure its a bit bigger and heavier than others, but it's durable. and the rubber seals supposedly make it waterproof (I don't doubt this one bit). If you need to regularly move and transport your hard drives and are worried about damage and bumps and drops, this IS the case for you! Beyond what I expected!
Review: Goddam - Using a budget WD Blue SSD on an 8 year old computer it just rinses modern USB flash drives. The difference in speed is not even close. I wasn't expecting this to work so well. Fast, cheap and robust.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this enclosure support 2.5" drives of size greater than 2tb?**
A: Tested this enclosure with a Samsung QVO series 8TB drive and it only shows a partition of 2TB with the rest of the drive unallocated. GPT was used. When inserted into a different enclosure the drive is displayed with the correct partition size.

**Q: I have a WD 500gb hd and im wondering what enclosure would fit it. It measures 4in x 5 3/4in.?**
A: You have 3.5" HDD (desktop PC). This enclosure designed to fit 2.5" HDD (laptop). Therefore it will not fit your HDD.

**Q: Do you need usb 3.0 to use?**
A: It uses the type C plug (I think, the USB standards are hard to keep up with!), which can be inserted either "up" or "down", unlike the older style plugs that must be inserted in the correct orientation. My laptop has one of the Type C receptacles and two of the older style receptacles. If your computer doesn't have the Type C receptacle, you can get  'gender adapter' that will allow you to use this device. If you use an Apple device, I'm not sure what kind of problems you might encounter.

**Q: Can I use a longer usb cable? Does it have a slot?**
A: The usb cable is attached to the unit. So in order to get a longer cable, you'll need a 'active' usb 3.0 extension cable. There are a few models that are also a "locking version" which would be much safer to prevent accidental disconnections (LINDY 8m USB 3.0 Active Pro Extension Cable, for example).  Cheers

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smart rugged effective design with convenient cable storage
*by W***E on 14 April 2022*

Great design at a great price. Opens easily with 6 phillips screws that keep hard shell secured around a pliant rubber gasket/bumper and carrier that cradles the drive. Drive slides into carrier securely. Carrier provides very substantial shock absorption and looks like it should also be well-sealed from moisture (i didn't test but it leaves no doubt). Shell is rigid and strong. Integrated sturdy USB cable stores easily and securely around outer edge of bumper offering further shock absorption for an edge hit. Cable storage provides protection for the USB plug. Installed drive is detected immediately. Data transfers at full drive speed (e.g., 75 MB/s) Blue LED shines through one side of case to show operation.
