  • Hi I have an external hard drive and I was doing an online backup which failed. I tried to eject the hard drive through the computer and it said the external hard drive was in use but there was no backup being done. I manually shut off the external hard drive and now it isn't being recognized when I plug it in and turn it on. If there any way of fixing this problem? Windows was not able to update the driver.

  • I own one of these from years ago, and in mho, it's a piece of plastic and that's it. Much nicer all metal enclosures out there. And the fan he points out is so tiny it's pointless. Just my opinion. Best.

  • i have a question for you...well a couple.. if i use my old hard drive as a new external drive as a slave drive, will i be able to keep my files on that old drive or if i have no choice but to format it and will it wipe out everything. there is a lot of family photos on there. my video card went out and i wanted to get rid of the computer, but i would like to have my photos off of there. or is there another option

    Thanx for the video

  • I don't have any large unused hd's ,but I do like this device b/c I only have usb 1.0 ports but i do have fire wire which has a max speed of 400 kb/s and the ability to link other hd's together is nice.

  • Hello, you can daisy chain the drives?

    Does each hard disk need to be plugged into the mains power though? I mean, can the power be daisy chained too?

    Thank you. :)

  • Hello,

    Thanks

  • Hello...

    I have a SimpleTech I think 400GB Harddisk and the light is now only blinking blue... I don't know what to do because sometimes it just needs to be turned on and off a couple of times... What do I do... Do you think you can help...

  • how much is the enclosure and how much would be a 100 gig or a 200 gig hard drive? does the enclosure come with a hard drive???

  • I don't have an external harddrive & this video was very helpful to me. He does talk fast doesn't he ? Also some of the comments were helpful as well, such as the one about the holes in the case for air to circulate. Thanks all.

  • Buying one or even two of these is a no brainer. Just be careful when installing the hard drive. Don't "forceq" anything. It's easy to break the led bulbs, if you do. I've got four of these babys and they're great.

  • Got that hard drive enclosure recently and it's good - but there's a drawback, you have to install the drive carefully or risk damage. Other than that, it's a good product.

  • Nice presentation. Worth watching.

  • NTS.......F !!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • If you need a new drive, you could consider a WDC but this thing if for people who already have drives around the house they can use.

  • thats what i was thinkin, hehe =P

  • LMAO!!! I always recommend, "An Orange One..", lol, this guy is great

  • icy box and western digital all da way!!
