I read the reviews, both positive and negative and figured I’d take a chance – how hard could it be? It shouldn’t be hard – it’s clearly a simple process but I couldn’t figure out any way my drive would match up with the PCB board and since there were barely any instructions (and from previous reviews it seems those instructions are misleading anyway)there wasn’t going to be any help figuring this out.
I thought maybe it was my drive that is the problem — and maybe it is, so I put in a request to the company’s technical assistance. I figured I’d wait the required three days for a response and I have, and nothing’s come back. I’d like to be able to use this enclosure because it will be a hassle to send back and get something else — especially because no packing slip came with the product. Oh, and while I am at it, no firewire cable either.

Nice looking product, nice aluminum construction.
Drive is not recognized on either a Vista or XP machine. Have already played with device manager and updated the driver for my brand new WD 320G Scorpio Hardrive.
I have invested about as much times as I am willing to for a $20 product, and I have to say that this product’s support online and the printed documentation that it comes with are both lousy.
Two stars for pretty $20 paperweight.

I purchased this after reading all the other great reviews. I placed my Playstation 3 60 GB hard drive into this enclosure and my computer did not recognize it at all. I thought that was strange so I took my laptop’s hard drive out and placed it in this enclosure and again the computer I attached it to did not recognize the drive. I also tried to attach it to a computer at work and got the same results.

This case is great! Amazon delivered it in there usual record time, and it was easy to use.
This is my first hard drive case so I was not sure what to go with. I went with this one because it was kind of middle of the range. I’m using it for an old ps3’s hard drive.
It’s really easy to use, and nice and stable. You just take off two screws on the one side, pull out the tray that holds the drive. Then you plug the drive in, put it back with the screws in, And there you have it.
Then you just plug the USB in, Or the eSata (If you have that).
At first my computer didn’t recognize it, but it was because it’s a ps3 hard drive and that’s in another format. So I just have to reformat it quick.
But any normal driver, or new driver should work strait away.

I had to replace the firewire that came with the enclosure in order for it to work. it does work but occasionally it doesn’t register at first. Most of the time it’s okay. it sometimes causes some applications to freeze when saving to the external. if the external is not plugged in and the application is open, this can happen when i plug in the external.
