## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the adapter come out of the case to use with larger physical drives?**
A: No, it's one whole thing so you can't remove the care from the adapter. But doesn't mean you can't careful cut out the case part then use it for bigger size drives.

**Q: I removed the hard drive from my daughters laptop because it wouldn't turn.  Will this allow me to retrieve the data on that hard drive?**
A: I use this enclosure for a friend who’s computer died.  We pulled the drive and put it in the enclosure and he was able to save all his data. So, it really depends on if the drive is still functional or not.

**Q: my previous ineo t2573 had no led indicator, does this unit come with one? cannot tell if formating is ongoing without it.**
A: Yes, there is a blue light located inside the casing. It flashes when plugged into a usb port.

**Q: Has anyone ever hooked one of these up to their Nintendo Wii, and is the cord long enough for the hard drive to lay vertically beside the Wii?**
A: I can't tell you if it will work with a Wii. The drive case is a USB 3.0 standard device and I have tried some older and newer 2.5 inch drives in it. Both have worked. I have also formatted a drive and that works on both MAC and PC. The USB cable is a unitized 4 inch pigtail that tucks into the case when not in use. I'm really happy with the design as you can easily swap drives in and out of it without tools.  I have tested it using a 4ft USB extension cable and that also works error free.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product
*by L***E on February 19, 2025*

As described and works good

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Killer way to make a portable drive out of a spare SSD or harddrive you have laying around.
*by A***U on March 20, 2020*

A little flimsy. But at the price point an awesome deal Guarantee the hinge will be the first thing to break but it should only need to be opened 1 or 2 times. Buy 1 for each drive. Two things it needs a spacer for the thin drives or they are loose inside. I made my own out of a piece of thin plastic. Just wedged it on top of the drive. If you try to clode the door it seem like it won't line up. If you do iy carefully pushing the thinned areas in to place as you close it will line up. When I closed mine it bulged on one side no doubt because of my homemade spacer. The case door has a ridge of plastic in this area. I took a sharp chisel and dhaved that ridge out and prrsto the case closed and it is lined up perfectly with no bulge area. Drive is plug and play. It is recognized instantly. I installed a 256GB Toshiba SSD in that case I will be buying two more for the two Samsung 750GB hybrid harddrives I salvaged from My HP dv8 18.4 in laptop. I installed those. They are like brand new.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good enclosure for the price
*by I***C on September 29, 2018*

I'll keep it short and simple. The enclosure is very lightweight, plasticky, feels cheap & opening is flimsy. BUT the speed is better than other enclosure. I've tested this with a SSD, connected to a MacBook Air by USB 3.1 and achieved ~370Mbps read and write, which is about ~30 to 40 more than other brand.:::Things I like:::>>> Very lightweight with a SSD.>>> Very slim, but little longer in length.>>> Attached USB cable is a plus.>>> Good speed>>> SSD/HD stays secure enough. Not too bad.:::I don't like:::>>> The quality of the plastic (again, what can I ask for this price😑) (I wish they come up with good quality one with a higher price).>>> The flap doesn't close flat. There is a gap after you close the flap.>>> Looks cheap and ugly.:::Do I recommend:::YES, if you> want something cheap (<$10)> are looking for a enclosure with attached cable.> want something lightweight and slim.:::My use:::I use it with a 256GB Silicon Power SSD, as a Windows 10 boot drive for my MacBook Air. Works flawlessly!
