Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of StarTech.com 2.5-Inch Silver USB 2.0 External Hard Drive Enclosure for SATA HDD (SAT2510U2) - SilverCustomer Review: Good, inexpensive way to extract files from hard drive. Summary: 5 Stars
This product worked perfectly. I am not close to being a techie, but I was easily able to recover and save my valuable files from the hard drive of a dead Dell laptop. (Most computer services will charge over $100 for this.) By the way, Dell was miserable to work with (and expensive) in wasting my time and failing to diagnose and repair the relatively new Inspiron laptop I am now planning to ritually (and safely) defenestrate. Go with Apple.
Customer Review: Did not work with PC or PS3 Summary: 1 Stars
I inserted a 2.5" HDD into this enclosure, but it was not recognized at all by either my Dell PC or my PlayStation 3 after connecting the it with the USB cable. I then bought an enclosure made by a different company, inserted the same 2.5" HDD, and it was promptly recognized by both the computer and the PS3. Clearly, the HDD was fine; the StarTech enclosure was the problem. This StarTech product was 100% useless and I threw it in the trash.
Customer Review: Good but not as good as you expect Summary: 3 Stars
If this hard drive works for a long time, it will become very hot. My computer is Lenovo Thinkpad. It's very quiet and cool before, I bought this hard drive to replace the original hard drive. When I changed, something are different. first, the reading and writing speed become faster. That's the good thing. On the other hand, my notebook become hotter and begins to generate more noise than before. So what you choose: speed or cooling down?
Customer Review: Enclosure Summary: 4 Stars
Used it to replace my 60gb HD on my PS3 with a 320gb WD HD. The only problem I encountered was when I connected it to my iMac keyboard using the USB cord. For whatever reason it would not recognize the 320gb drive. However, when I connected it directly to the back of my iMac it recognized it immediately. I formatted the 320GB HD and installed in my PS3. I'm now using the enclosure with the 60gb HD which have been working flawlessly.
Customer Review: Something not right here Summary: 5 Stars
I'm trying to upgrade my playstation 3 from 30 gb to 150 gb after reading some reviews about some people using it for their playstation 3 and they say it worked fine ... it's not easy for me. I hooked it up using my ps3 hard dive it fits good and I hooked it up to the usb for my ps3 and it says (cannot start the correct hard disk was not found.)how can it be done? maybe I'll buy a copy of my hard drive and have more gb on it.
