Our take
If you've got an old 3.5" SATA drive lying around and want to give it new life, this Vantec enclosure is a practical option. The USB 3.0 interface ensures decent transfer speeds, which is a definite plus for moving larger files. While it's a basic black case, it gets the job done without much fuss. Installation for a 3.5" drive is usually straightforward, so you shouldn't run into too many issues. Just remember, it's an enclosure only, so you'll need to supply your own hard drive.
