Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The enclosure works as advertised.
I installed a 1TB sata HD which worked fine.
Lots of room to use mini shock mount screws (full size may or may not fit).
With the front cover on, it got rather warm, but not hot during light use.
I would not try a heavy backup without removing the front cover - this reduced the temp 3-5c.
The major problem is that the USB port did not support SMART!
I found no way to park the drive for power down!
This is said to shorten the drive life greatly
(unless you leave it on for days at a time).
No way to check drive temp (but to buy a thermometer).
I would not buy this for a HD if you plan to use it on USB often.
