- Strengths:
- ESATA, cheap, straightforward install
- Weaknesses:
- plastic case, wire connecting to the led in front, non-standard power adapter (which is huge!)
- Summary:
- For the price I paid for ($15), it's not bad.. works as expected. I needed an ESATA drive for my HDPVR (Shaw Gateway) and it worked fine. Other enclosures cost minimum $30, and this is the cheapest way for me to expand my HDPVR recording space at a budget price...
Dont see the problem with it

- Strengths:
- Looks alright
Cheap
eSata & USB
- Weaknesses:
- Bright Blue LED on the front is distracting if its on your desk. I just used a piece of electrical tape to cover over the front.
- Summary:
- I dont see why this has gotten such a low review.. for 15 bucks (sale) it does what it says.. it encloses your hard drive.. I use mine as an external backup on my Router that my files get copied to nightly.. Its worked fine for a a little over a year now without any issues. It might be a little "cheap" for someone who wants to carry a HDD in thier backpack all the time, but if you do, spend the money on a more rugged unit and dont complain that a 15 dollar one is "not very good"..
Fragile!?? Whatever

- Great value, stackable, look alright
- Weaknesses:
- Nothing
- Summary:
- I have 8 of these enclosures and not one has failed or broken or done anything negative. Not sure what Ted from Delta bc is talking about. Buy these. They have a proven track record in my experience. Have been using the brand for years. The enclosure that only has USB is fairly flimsy. Maybe Ted accidentally got that one. These ones are solid and they out preform the price they are sold at.
Its good for its price
