SSD fails when using this
Constantly connects then disconnects with any drive I use.
Drives work fine when I don’t sue this enclosure.
Only tested with SSDs so far.

doesn't work!
I bought two of these today from Memory Express in Calgary. They will be back there tomorrow!
My wife has a HP Pavilion (I know.... not even mediocre!) with a M2N68-LA "Pegatron" Mother Board. In the caddy (adapter Enclosure!) the PC won't start and tells me there is a problem and I need to repair my system... I connect the SSD directly i.e. no longer in the caddy.....

Great for MacPro upgrades
I used this adapter to upgrade the system drive in an old aluminum MacPro to an SSD. Very easy to install and it works great. One caveat: the mounting threads are simply cut into the sheet metal of the base and they are easy to strip, so be gentle with your screwdriver!

Totally Useful Drive Adapter
I got this a few weeks ago to solve a form factor problem. My desktop had the rails for a 3.5" drive only, and I have a higher quality/high capacity 2.5" that I wanted to use and this solved the issue. It's size is that of a standard 3.5" drive in which a 2.5" fits. You slide the red button to the side and the spring loaded door opens. Once a 2.5" drive is placed inside...

Great solution
I have been using this device from time to time over the past few weeks. I have tested this with multiple 2.5" drives and in different computers and drive duplicators.
This product comes in a nice little box, just slightly bigger than the enclosure itself. It has instructions which I don't think are necessary (very self explanatory) as well as screws for permanent moun...

Nice product- well built
This is a fantastic item for anyone who needs to use a 2.5" drive in a 3.5" bay. I used this item using an 512GB SSD. The 2.5" drive slides in effortlessly and makes connection with ease. I tried to remove the drive using the release and it had no issues ejecting the 2.5" drive from the case. I took the drive and placed it into my iMac which requires a 3.5" dri...

Seems not to work in Dell Dimension Desktops
When I install this into a Dell Dimension Desktop with a Crucial MX 300 275GB SSD, the computer will lock up. If I plug directly into the drive without this device it seems to work fine.
