A metal HDD enclosure that works great. I accidentally ordered 2 and was told I could get a full refund but it was so cheap and works great that I really don't plan on sending the other one back. It came with a screw driver and 2 screws to secure the HDD.
High quality item at a low price.

This external enclosure for a 2.5 inch IDE notebook hard drive was exactly what I needed to reformat my hard drive with a corrupt system file. This enclosure is high quality and for a low price ($5.99). It was easy to install. Enclosed directions were general, but with some common sense anyone could put this together. I highly recommend this item.
I'm covered (and that's good)

Great inexpensive housing for an old laptop hard drive - I'm now good to go with 50+ gigs with an simple assembly and super portability!
Works well, and too cheap to complain about

For the ~$4 I paid, I wasn't really expecting much, but this enclosure is very easy to use and does its job well. The only issue is that the enclosed screws are tiny (smaller than the tip of a ballpoint pen), and the enclosed screwdriver is too big to use with them. One of the screw holes (in the plastic) is too big for the screws, and the other one I didn't screw all the way in for fear of stripping it, but honestly the case holds together decently without them. All in all, it does what it should, and it's definitely worth the price even with the shortcomings.
Decent product, if it had instructions!

This is basically a good product. My biggest complaint is that there were no instructions. I realize for most people, it is pretty easy to figure out, but I was a bit fearful of doing the wrong thing, so I pulled up instructions for a similar product online and everything went fine. It would also have been nice if there were holes in the case and screws that held the hard drive stable inside the case. Other than that, it is a good product.
