No air flow, case was damaged on delivery and had to stuff the HD into the case, scratching the unit up on all sides. I got what I paid for (cheapest one in the list) - go for a unit with airflow.

I have found two problems with their claims. (1.) I have one 2.5 hard drive from an old Gateway that wouldn't fit in the case (The sizes were almost identical). (2.) My biggest beef was that it won't work with just any 2.5 hard drive, it is specifically made for an ide connection only (if it is for any 2.5 hard drive then they sure as hell short you the adapter to make it work with the SATA connection on about half of the 2.5 hard drives out there).The company should at least owe all of us who purchaced one of these an adapter for free to show they stand behind their products!!! I have found no problems with their product as long as it is used with an ide drive, but be cautious when considering it for purchase because it is shown nowhere that it is only ide specific and THEIR PRODUCT IS NOT SATA COMPLIANT!!!

I needed a SATA. Is so cheap that I didn't even return it! Rating: 3 / 5 Couldn’t use it because this turned out to be a USB to IDE. I needed a SATA. Is so cheap that I didn’t even return it!

Rating it 2 stars for not listing the interface on the tech specs. No idea if the product works as intended.
