Well made product that can't be beat

I love this product. It's extremely well made. It comes complete with a durable and convenient carrying case. The included USB cable has an additional connector that allows you to attached another low power USB device. One cable, two devices. That's handy and demonstrates the attention to detail evident through out the product.

Nexstar 3

This product worked right out of the box. Too bad that so few HD enclosure units are still available.

My laptop crashed so I ordered this to access my hard drives. With them its always prompt delivery. This case is absolutely worth the money and everyone should have at least one.

Worth every penny spent!

I installed a 320Gb hardrive (that was only 9 mos old) from an 8 year old laptop (motherbd died) and installed it into one these Nextstar 3 units. Oustanding product! Very easy to install drive into enclosure; performs wonderfully and very well made! I am using it under heavy load with it connected to a single USB port and have no problems. You get a cable, the enclosure and a case for less than $25!

Great enclosure

Bought this to house a new HD to upgrade my laptop's hard drive. Worked flawlessly, and the copy process was pretty quick, copying 80 gigs of data over in just over an hour. The enclosure looks great, and comes with a sturdy carrying case that can hold the enclosure and the USB cable, and then zips closed. So now I have everything in one place. Incredible value for the money.
