Three warning steps during assembly: 1) Watch out for the small wire and connector as you open the enclosure. It is the wiring for the indicator lamp. It could be easily ripped off if not careful. 2) The last two screws that you need for assembly, before you even put the disk in the enclosure see if the screws actually fit. If the screws do not go in the threading use some oil and work the threading prior to doing the full assembly (this will prevent you from stripping the screws). 3) As others have commented, the actual enclosure is very tight. The older 40 GByte disk that I installed barely fits. Once assembled I did some drive testing. To my amazement there really was no heat issue at all. After working the drive for over 15 minutes I saw very little heat increase.

When my computer crashed, I was in the process of backing up files and still had hundreds of pictures and documents to save. I would have been heartbroken had this product not been available to save the day. I have nothing but good to say about it. First of all, it arrived within days of ordering it from Amazon. Then, it worked just like it said it would. Installation was a breeze and with my new computer which runs Vista, all I did was plug it in and VOILA! all my files were available. The price is right. The style is sleek. The performance is exactly as promised. Highly recommend.

I own several enclosures, I was looking in the market for a new one for my new 1.5TB which is not easy to find, this one is very good, my HD now is set inside a good blue design quite case (noise is number one issue for me). Installation was very easy, nice blue light indicator in the front panel. I received it 4 weeks ago and the performance is very good. My only worry is about cooling down in the road I would prefer one with cooling fan because most of the time I forget my drive on.
