Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Good quality (ul certified) power adapter and slides in place quickly. Goes into standby when not used for a long period of time and wakes back up when selected. Fine for me because it stays in the studio.

It works fine as far as being recognized by the os and transferring data. Easy to install and was instantly recognized by my mac. Using it to backup my windows server machine.

Led position and operation may be a deal breaker for some. Metal mesh is nice and the plastics feel very durable. Pleased with this enclosure.

Only time will tell after swapping several times if the build quality is any good.

The good:+ reasonable price+ no tools required to install/remove disk.


Usb3 is a lot faster of course.

Packaging/appearance


Removed the wd mycloud drive from the factory enclosure, slid into the inateck enclosure, connected to mac.


Could not reformat for regular data storage in the existing wd mycloud box, so i ordered the inateck external enclosure.

Competitiveness


Works as intended on my 12tb seagate drive


Love that it has its own power source and up to 6gb speeds.


I bought this to house a 2tb seagate hard drive that i removed from a seagate goflex network drive that seagate decided to stop supporting.


I wanted to re-use a 3tb sata hard drive cannibalized from an old nas.

    I bought this external hd enclosure so i could mount that old hd wd 2tb black and retrieve my previously filed tax info


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The inateck enlosure is made of plastic


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So it isnt what i would call a rugged case


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Some enclosures use a momentary push button which means the drive will not turn on after a power failure unless you press the button


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The bad only the mesh is metal the rest is plastic


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The mesh is only on one side so there isn’t ventilation “through” the enclosure
