2.5 "IDE HOUSING COVER CASE ENCLOSURE EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE USB 2.0 (Electronics)

Customer Review

performance side (tested on a USB port 3, measurement with HD Tune) slightly odd things:
- SSD IDE drive (Transcend TS32GPSD330) runs 10% slower in this case as in another of my IDE enclosures Yet nearly 10 years older ... The flow in this config tops out at 30.2 MB / s on average [30.6 MB / s max, 27.8 MB / s burst, 0.5 ms access]. This gives the practical limit of the box (flow is not limited by either the drive or through the USB interface since I'm on a USB 3)
- On an old disc tray Hitachi 20GB MAX jatteins a speed of 31.7 MB / s ??
Anyway do not quibble:
- Low price at all
- Speed ​​USB 2.0 compliant (30MB / s)
- Owl
- Screwless appearance is a false advantage for me. I think we can get to put 4 screws (often only 2 even) when starting a product.
