It is simple, there is not too "plastic".
I took one with a bay because I have too much utility for cloning.
My choice of a dock instead of an external hard drive enclosure is that; the dock is very convenient (quick change DD), the dock breathable SD, and it does not overheat the DD in a sealed enclosure as do the housings.
Well it's not the nomad equipment, but nothing prevents shifting cautiously towards his or her box blu-ray player.
Besides it works fine on my Windows 7 64x and also recognized by my blu-ray player (A LG) However buying a small external HD will still significant as we will not pay more than 50 (that is not made to last this material ...)
Maybe even later I would take another dock here can still be useful for troubleshooting or other permanently connected dock on the box / TV / BD player (with provided he qualifies but I think it's the case for me)
I preferred the horizontal version by its look and the fact that we are "safe" we inserted the SD, while in the horizontal version, it is not always obvious. Also this version is more beautiful.
Only downside is the stop button and start not very good and a bit small. The LED is a bit "violent" to observe (it flashes like a scanner sensor and it makes me bleed my eyes ^^)
Good for the price (25 at the time of purchase) savings here the only star I would have taken him for those two little things: hence 5 stars!
