According to our hard drive enclosure expert
The Ewent EW7044 is a casing for your 2.5-inch internal HDD (maximum height 9.5mm) or 2.5-inch SSD. Give your old internal hard drive a second life and share your vacation photos, music, and movies on every device. The casing doesn't have screws, so it's easy to install the drive without extra material. Thanks to the integrated LED light, you know when your drive is in use, and whether it's working properly. In addition, you can connect the drive directly to your laptop or desktop PC via plug and play, without having to install software. On top of that, the drive supports USB 3.1 (generation 1), so you can transfer an 8GB HD movie in less than 15 seconds.

New life for an old laptop hard drive. Easy to open without tools and yet not that "cheap stuff" feeling. The build and material quality is actually surprisingly good. Rounded corners and edges and the supplied cable is standard and therefore interchangeable with that of other USB(3) housing sets. An extra foam sticker is even supplied in case after many times inserting and removing a disc the original foam has become less.
Some find the cable length of 50 cm on the short side, but several renowned manufacturers of ready-made external USB drives offer even shorter and thinner cables. So this cable is not a “bottleneck” when it comes to USB bandwidth (and therefore speed). The slightly more power-demanding hard disk will also appreciate the not too long, thick cable.
(For those who like to push the limits: Remember the maximum 500mA per USB bridge on the computer side, or use a USB hub with its own power supply.)

Fast and solid, it does what it has to do, also my old SSD can be used as a backup disk in it. Cheap!
