1Tb 2.5 Hard Drive

[1x 120 mm Fan] I have this connected by USB 3.0 to a Asustor AS5304T 4-bay NAS. Setting it up was easy after the supplied USB cable broke as soon as I went to use it. First test was installing 1tb WD hhd's, works fine. Then I decided to see if I could figure out a way to install 2.5 ssd's. I found on Thingiverse a 3D model of a drive adapter that I could print and use. Made that and put a Crucial MX500 1tb ssd on it. This was able to be inserted into a bay and recognized. That works. BTW - These drive so far were NTFS. Here is where it I had an issue. I tried installing a 2.5 Seagate 5tb hhd formatted with a NTFS volume. This did not work. The Sabrent station changed it to show up as a GPT protective partition. I next installed A WD 4tb hhd and got the same results. After googling this problem I found that someone had contacted Sabrent about it and the suggested to do a low level format. I know that doing this would tie up a drive for ages before completion. Here is what I did: 1. In Windows I used Diskpart and performed a Clean. Then used Disk Management, initialized the disk and did a simple exFat volume. This worked on the drives I wanted to use that were over 1tb. Why? I did more reading and from what I understand is that it has to do with the disk sector sizes. This I don't need to understand for I only care about getting to a usable enclosure with larger drives. I have even read elsewhere that some people got so frustrated that they put it aside to collect dust. I hope this helps them. Overall, I am please with this product except for that junky USB cable.

[Plastic] It fits the Samsung 1TB 860 EVO SATA III 2.5 Internal SSD drive perfectly and work great as an external drive for photo editing on a Mac.

[500 GB] The Western Digital 1TB Desktop Performance Caviar Black HDD Retail Kit (WD1003FZEX) is a quality internal computer hard drive. The B&H store sells this drive at a very reasonable price, and provides fast shipping. I've used it on a refurbished desktop computer and expect to get over five years of service. I plan on purchasing more of these dives to provide a second data drive and a portable external hard drive this I can depend on. There are no negatives about this drive.

[0.27 lb] I used this to clone my original 1TB mechanical hard drive to a new 1TB SSD. The cloning went flawlessly and the laptop performs much faster with the SSD.

[Pattern] This camera bag exceeds all of my expectations, and most importantly, WITHOUT breaking the bank! Very stylish, affordable, waterproof rain cover, comfortable straps, etc. The only thing I don't like about it is I don't have a place for my gimbal, but it has its own carry case. I currently use this bag for the following gear: Canon T3i Sigma 18-50mm 2.8 lens GoPro Hero 4 Black LaCie 1TB hard drive Western Digital My Passport for Mac 1TB hard drive 13 2010 Macbook Pro Manfrotto Tripod 2 iPhone LED lights w/ 1/4 inch adapters Extra batteries for DSLR and GoPro Cables It fits it all comfortably!

[250 GB] I purchased this Crucial 1TB MX500 2.5 Internal SATA SSD hard drive for my Dell 5548 laptop. This SSD hard drive is a nice upgrade for a Dell laptop. The installation was super easy and the disk read & write performance is just as advertised. If you are looking for a SSD upgrade/replacement, I recommend this hard drive for your computer.

[1x 2.5" SATA] I ripped an old 1TB hard drive out of an old USB 2.0 enclosure. It was easy to install it into this enclosure. It used small phillips screws. Having a set of small screwdrivers made it a simple installation.

[0.81 lb] Used this to install a 2.5 SSD in place of a 3.5 hard drive. Unlike other adapters, this one is steel rather than plastic. It is also very inexpensive when compared with other adapters.

[3840 x 2160] I am a biased user when it comes to hard disks and use only Seagate manufactured units. Both the 4TB and the 7200 rpm 2TB, 3.5 versions have performed well. These two units was my first 3.5 purchase since the appearance of laptops, other purchased units were 2.5, replaceable for internal drive if needed. The price of the 3.5 4TB unit, for an external drive, was why I did not buy a more expensive 2.5 drive. Mind you I do miss the performance of the old 2.5 models with 4 GB of solid state cache; not seen in the catalog recently.

[Metal] These are great hard drives. Very high performance for a 2.5 hard drive. Of course they are nowhere near as fast as a solid state drive. But for what they are, they are pretty good.
