Digital camera Review: 1 minute and you're done!
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this thinking it would be a bit of a task to put the my old drive in it, I was wrong. It's basically 3 parts, the body, the cover/board and 2 screws. You plug in the cover/board to the drive, slide the drive into the enclosure and place the two screws (#0) and you're done! I reformatted the drive as it had an OS on it since I replaced my macbook drive with a 500gb drive. for $14.99 I have a portable 250gb drive, AWESOME!
The enclosure uses uses mini USB, the cable supplied has mini-USB on one end and two USB 2.0 connections on the other, this is cool if you have an older mac or a PC that has a USB port that does not supply enough power to run the drive. The new Mac's only need one to make this one spin but it's good they provided it to ensure no problems with other machines.
NOTE:
One thing to note if you have never erased a drive with an OS on it. I had to figure this out. Disk Utility would not just let me reformat the drive because many of the files where protected. So I dragged the folders and files into the trash then Option+Delete to delete all the files. Once they were gone it reformatted just fine. Hope that helps.
