[12 TB] I started out by installing a 6TB WD HDD in one of these enclosures for backup of a large photo library. I now am using three for digital photos and a fourth for Apple's Time Machine. Highest praise. 5

[Aluminum] This enclosure was so simple to set up. I put my Seagate 20TB HDD inside of it and it fired right up and works perfectly. This is a must buy! 5

[Aluminum] I love these hard drives, I have a 12T and 18T. They work really well with my new MacBook Pro. At first, when the computer would go to sleep, they would sometimes dismount and then when the computer would wake up they would remount, but I'd see that message that they were not dismounted properly. Tech support recommended two changes in the system preferences, and now they work well. (The settings they recommended were under Battery, then Power Adapter, Uncheck "Prevent computer from sleeping automatically when display is off and Uncheck Put hard drives to sleep when possible.) The drives are fast and smooth. I love the cables they come with, and I love the blue case. I used to buy G-Drives because I thought they were the best. These are a great replacement. I was impressed with the recommendation of Mike Bomich of Carbon Copy Cloner. Theses hard drives really are the best kept secret, as another reviewer wrote. 5

[Aluminum] Like many I’ve been searching for a G-Drive replacement. Came to this by way of a recommendation from Mike Bombich, creator of carbon copy cloner. I’ve only had it a couple weeks but it’s probably the quietest HDD I have. It also has no annoying flashing light on the front which I love. Transfer speeds were fast. Hope it lasts and if it does I’m a convert. 5

[ 3.5" HDD ] I bought a 16TB hard drive to put in this. Extremely easy, basically slides right in and the cover goes back on. Very well made. 5

[Aluminum] Thick silicone cover protects the drive inside; a WD 16TB Gold. I use this enclosure to backup my NAS periodically. There's no fan, just an aluminum housing which has small fins on the bottom to help dissipate heat. Came with USB Type-A and Type-C cables which was nice, and a full set of screws and a screwdriver. Paper instructions were a plus as I didn't have to go online to finish setup. Great product! 5

[Aluminum] looking for an external this is the one to get. this drive is fast and works great on network. 5

[3.495 lb] I bought this a few weeks ago and am very glad I did. I have a Seagate IronWolf 20TB drive inside this thing and it is awesome. It makes for a small footprint on your desk and works flawlessly. The blue bumper pads around the edges really look cool. This is a must buy and it is not expensive at all. A perfect home for your 3.5 HDD. BUY AT B&H TODAY!!! 5

[ 3.5" HDD ] I got this to house my 8TB backup drive. It was simple to get into the unit and install. A few screws, put the silicone housing on it for protection and you're done. Very easy and a good price. Feels very stable and solid. 5
