Compatible with standard 2.5" SATA hard drives and solid-state drives, the 2.5" SATA to USB 2.0 External Hard Drive Enclosure from Sabrent has been built using a lightweight aluminum enclosure which helps dissipate heat while also remaining portable. Surrounding the enclosure is a rubber bumper, which helps to provide protection against shock. Thanks to its USB 2.0 Type-A interface, it can achieve read and write speeds of up to 480 Mb/s. Backward compatible with 12 Mb/s USB 1.1, this enclosure allows drives to be hot swapped, and plug-and-play functionality means that no additional drivers are required for use. Additionally, it is powered using the USB bus, meaning that no additional power cables are required for use. Protection is provided by a limited 1-year warranty.

This is by no means a fancy enclosure. It's about as basic as basic gets, in fact. But it works. Throughput is good and assembly is simple. I purchased this drive to house a clone of the drive in an older, but still-functional laptop. It doesn't has much installed on it because it accesses its data remotely. It's small enough to carry with the laptop in the event that I need it while traveling, and cheap enough that I don't really care if it gets scuffed or damaged. It also requires no tools, so that's one less thing I have to worry about if I have to swap the drive while away from home. In a nutshell, I doubt you can do any better for a 2.5 inch enclosure at this price point. It's not fancy and it's not pretty; but it works. 5

Item works great, just note there is a trick to open the case as it slides to open. Will buy more as needed. 5

Have not had it very long, but installation of the SSD took about 20 seconds. Zero tools. Done. By far easiest enclosure I've used. 5

I like having enclosures for SSDs and M.2 drives, and this Sabrent works well. I have several of them. 5

I ordered the Hard Drive Enclosure to enable me to clone the new SSD that I ordered with it. It worked flawlessly and made it very easy to clone the new SSD from my laptop. 5
