Definitely high quality workmanship and built to last. <br /> <br />Once it came to putting my existing drive into this case it fit perfectly! The connections fit just fine and there was plenty of room left over to store excess once I put the entire unit together. <br /> <br />The fan is extremely quiet.. almost forgot it was there. And once a disk was inserted, I experience no vibration what so ever. <br /> <br />*Since I am very cautious when it comes to purchases, I've included photos on this product as well <br /> <br />My iMAC recognized the drive as soon as I put a audio disk in.. just to test it. iTunes kicked immediately and there I was now with 2 drives that I can use on and off as much as I want! I already have plans in a few weeks to get another! Needless to say that I would recommend this to a buddy..

Easy assembly, works fine, feels solid, looks good. Not much to say other than this is exactly what I needed for the DVD burner I pulled from my old PC.

Since I knew the other drives were good I looked at enclosures, and ended up with this one. Drive installed fairly quickly, but it was a very tight fit with lots of shoving to get the cover over it. My net book (Windows XP) saw it instantly, and it's worked very time I've tried it since. It would have gotten a 5 if it hadn't been such a tight fit. I love that it has an on/off switch.

I would suggest this product, especially if you don’t want to toss your good IDE drive.

It also works on HD, I have an old IDE hard drive, but haven’t tested it.
