Great tool-less design, but it feels like it takes some delicate work to get the drive in without damaging either end. As long as you don't plan on swapping drives in/out of this enclosure frequently, all will hold up fine. The leather sleeve looks hastily put together, but still serves its purpose as padding when carried in a briefcase. Users should keep in mind the power required for older 2.5" drives. Most draw more current than the 500mA a USB port can put out (some older PCs/laptops can't even do that). This is why the cable has 2 plugs on the PC end. The best way to use this product is to plug the 2 USB cables into your computer first, then plug the other end into the enclosure. Works every time for me that way!
