I purchase this to use my old laptop hard drive. That's it. It works great. Open the case and insert HD. Connect USB cable and rock-n-roll. No problem with it what so ever.
Works great. My laptop died and I didn't have some info backed-up. This saved my butt. Very easy and works great.
I had a friend with a dead laptop with a lot of personal items -- tax files, resumes, irreplaceable photos, etc -- left on it. I ordered this hard drive enclosure, transferred her hard drive into the Sabent, and used it to pull off all her personal data and "sanitize" her hard drive of all personal info so she could send the laptop off for repair. Then I replaced the now-sanitized drive into her laptop.And, since I already had a spare 2.5-inch notebook drive lying around, I now have a nice portable USB hard drive.It's nice to know the alternative is there in the future, too.
I had a laptop harddrive that was dying - it was so bad that the system would no longer boot into Windows XP. I had files on the system that I wanted to recover so I decided to purchase this device. The harddrive fit perfectly and I was able to mount the drive on another system running Windows Vista - I was then able to recover the data.
I ordered this to use with the hard drive from my Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop. No hassle, just worked. Comes with a screwdriver and no other tools were needed. It is nice in that it works without an extra power cord.
