About this product
This Shadowcore external hard drive enclosure is designed to house a single 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD, supporting capacities up to 18TB. It features a USB 3.0 interface for data transfer and is compatible with Windows and Mac OS systems. Constructed from rigid plastic, the black enclosure measures 180mm in length, 110mm in width, and 30mm in height, offering a dustproof solution for your internal drives.
Our take
If you're looking to repurpose an old internal SATA drive into an external storage solution, this enclosure gets the job done. The USB 3.0 interface provides decent transfer speeds, and it's nice that it accommodates both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drives, though the thickness limitation for 2.5-inch drives is something to note. The rigid plastic construction feels durable enough for stationary use, and the dustproof feature is a small but welcome addition for protecting your drive. For the price, it's a practical way to expand storage without buying a new external drive, provided you have a spare internal one.
