Easy to use and works as intended. Good build quality and compatible with pc and laptop. No issues with noise levels. Fairly priced for what it is. Review: Good performance, clean design - Got a few of these for periodic file backups (not for continuous connected use), I have had some uGreen adapters purchased previously that work well for me and these enclosures appear to be a similar device in a HDD enclosure case, so I was confident they'd work well - which they do. The plastic is light but well finished, and they were easy* to install and use. I did initially search for a case with a cooling fan, but good ones seem to be hard to come by so I took a chance these would be okay - there are vents on the underside that lead to the base of the installed drive, but not much of a channel for circulation to the top plate of the HDD, which is completely enclosed without vents when the lid is on. Having said that, I had a 1tb WD Black 7200rpm 3.5in drive in one, and copied 200gb of data to it on first use, the heat generated was not excessive, and you can at least use it with the lid off if you intend on prolonged grinding. My intended use is intermittent so I'm happy with the thermal performance for my purposes. A tip not covered in the booklet - the bay slot in these for your drive is slightly longer than a full size 3.5in drive, to allow you to insert the drive flat (NOT at an angle!) and push it forward to connect with the SATA connector. The lid then has a spacer at the end underside, that prevents any (unlikely) movement away from the connector into that extra installation space. If removing a drive, the foam pads on the sides do a good job of keeping the HDD in place, so it can be a bit daunting trying to get one out at first - the best method I found is to place the unit flat on a firm surface and insert fingernails on both sides of the top of the HDD at the connector end, and pull back towards you firmly to detach it - then you can lift it straight out. Don't be tempted to lift the back end first, for what should be obvious reasons ;) I didn't find mine loud, as others have, although I thought they would be as the plastic seems like it would be prone to resonance. The foam pads must be limiting vibration quite well as the fan in my laptop was far louder than the sounds coming from the HDD when in use, so no problem there for me at all. *It can require a bit of strength to slide the top off initially, but note that there are little indents underneath the lid to keep it firmly closed, close to the power switch end - if you grip the lid at that end to remove it, you will be making it harder to remove, grip it about halfway down the lid's length instead, and apply a gentle pressure to the top when sliding. Only nit I'd pick with it is trivial - the blue activity indicator on the top is lit from behind by a white LED, which can be visible through a tiny gap sometimes somewhat spoiling the effect. I did say it was trivial ;) ## Features - Universal Compatibility: The 3.5 inches External Hard Drive Enclosure fits both 3.5 and 2.5 inches SATA HDD/SSD up to 22TB, like WD Purple, WD Black, Seagate Barracuda, Toshiba, EVO 980/870, Crucial BX500/MX500, Kingston, PNY, Integral, etc. - Lightning Speed: UGREEN 3.5 HDD Hard Drive Enclosure supports super fast speed at 5Gbps,10 times faster than USB 2.0. This SATA to USB adapter adopt advanced chipset ensures stable and safer data transmission. - Enhanced Function: This 3.5 Hard Drive Case will switch to sleep mode automatically without operation in 3mins. The LED indicator indicates the working status of the hard drive enclosure. - Easy to Set: UGREEN External Hard Drive Caddy requests no tool to secure SSD in place. Plug and play, driver-free on Windows 11/10/8/7/XP/Vista, Linux, Mac OS, and Chrome OS. - Great Protection: The HDD SATA Enclosure offers excellent durability with the premium ABS case. The USB to SATA adapter bottom heat emission vents keep the hard drive cool for a longer lifespan. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B076X4WWZY | | Best Sellers Rank | 1,095 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 2 in Hard Drive Docking Stations | | Brand Name | UGREEN | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Gaming Console | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (2,877) | | Data Transfer Rate | 5 Gigabits Per Second | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Hardware Interface | USB 3.0 | | Hardware Platform | Windows/Mac OS/Linux/PS5/Xbox | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 19.4L x 11.7W x 3.8H centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.48 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Ugreen Group Limited | | Memory Storage Capacity | 22 TB | | Supported Devices Quantity | 1 | | The Standard Size of the Hard Drive or the Bay the Hard Drive Is Compatible With (in inches) | 3.5 Inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** UGREEN - **Colour:** Black - **Hardware interface:** USB 3.0 - **Hardware platform:** Windows/Mac OS/Linux/PS5/Xbox - **Product dimensions:** 19.4L x 11.7W x 3.8H centimetres ## Images ![Hard Drive Enclosure, SATA to USB 3.0 HDD Caddy for 2.5 3.5 inch SSD HDD Disk up to 22TB with DC Power Adapter, Tool-free Lay-Flat Hard Drive Docking Station for Windows Linux macOS, PS4, Xbox - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61IqxBScw2L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: When PC/Console is switched off then on again does this automatically turn back on or does it require the power button to be pushed before it works?** A: No, if the power is turned off to the drive enclosure it needs turning back on again with the power button when it is restarted. This is a real pain as I purchased this item because of the previous answer that said it comes back on automatically. It only stays on if you maintain power to it, so it does not remember the previous on/off state when you remove power. **Q: Does it support 12+18 pin MacBook ssd?** A: Hi. This USB 3.0 3.5" Enclosure is equipped with a SATA III 7+15 Pin connector. So it shouldn't be comaptible with a 12+8 Pin MacBook ssd. Hope the answer helps. UGREEN **Q: i had to purchase a new laptop, i have taken the SATA hard drive out my old laptop, will this device allow me to recover and access files ?** A: Maybe. This is a great way to physically access your drive, but if this was your old laptop's main hard drive you may well find that it is encrypted, or that the files you want are stored in a section only accessible by your old user login. The actual product is great, but unless the files you are after are not secured, then this won't help much (neither will any external caddy). **Q: I have used this device with no issues, no physical damage, and no extra noise, it is recognized but not accessible.** A: Eject your device from whatever computer or media player it’s connected to safely ,turn power off. Now check if the hardrive is securely firmly connected and not loose in it. Just take it out and reinsert it in your ugreen. If it’s still not working and it’s still under warranty just return ang get a new one. If you have a spare hardrive check if it works with it, your hardrive is faulty. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good hard drive enclosure *by J***M on 23 March 2026* Bought for accessing old harddrives kicking about.
