VANTEC MRK-515ST NexStar SE 2.5" SATA Hard Drive Rack
|
Tends to make a great way to shield your costly SSD and stop other loved ones members from sabotaging your computer by hiding it! It comes with SATA cable and a energy adapter pigtail. Packaging match for a diamond ring, let alone a tiny plastic drive drawer! I'd rather have it shipped in a bubble pack and save a couple of bucks then waste so much cardboard! As for the drive drawer, I got it to function immediately after producing a tiny mod. I installed my new SSD and all seemed fine until I tried to get rid of it from the enclosure. Opps...It won't come out! Got jammed in. Darn. Had to take away the entire issue from the laptop or computer, take the metal cover off, gently coax the drawer to release itself from the slot. Discovered that the little spring clips that hold the drive in had been not seating effectively into the little screw holes on the challenging drive. Due to the fact of that, the "ears" on the clips had been hanging up on the mouth of the the enclosure. Dremel Tool to the rescue! Sanded down the offending "ears" just a bit and it now slides in and out just fine. Nice style, but leaves very tiny "wiggle room". Seems my OCZ SSD drive is like a nanometer bigger than it's spinner cousins and fit quite snug in the tray. Also, has this bright blue LED light that incessantly blinks all the time, lighting up my room like a discotheque! Black electrical tape cures that little annoyance. Overall, ya, if your spending budget is tight, particularly following blowing a weeks spend on a SSD, this is the way to go!
