Upon receipt, it was tested immediately: not recognized either Windows XP or Windows 7, yet our internal IDE HDD old works in a tower. We decide to return it immediately ... but I try one last test: insert SD, connect, connect the power supply, USB cable, without closing the housing so everything is open on the top (it was tested for First flat) and there it works, DD + housing are recognized in Windows 7. It is turned off, and gently push SD and water, is closed, we turn back ... it works again, phew! I cancel the return procedure. So all in this little trick: how to mount the HDD IDE, as the table takes up space and does a faulty contact. Otherwise, when using the HDD, the noise is too noticeable, ridicule fan. The appearance is at once fragile but to see the long term. I do not recommend opening it several times: once your DD up and recognized, better not to touch it, without exception. A 3 * only because not so easy to use, not so silent. I would complete my review later to assess longevity, hoping it will be positive. The delivery was made by Amazon: 20/20 as usual for packaging and speed.
Edit My comment: tonight noise followed by a spark on taking over lit LED on the case, more noise on internal HDD. After testing other terminals, he died but worse was surely lost our DD + our data! I returned to the seller! So: Housing I do not recommend, AVOID!
