White USB2.0 Slim DVD / CD RW Burner External Enclosure Caddy Case with SATA Connetor For Laptop Notebook burner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was surprised at how basic and simple this is. It's a thin plastic (rather mediocre plastic) case, with a small circuit board inside that has all the necessary connections; USB, power, SATA. That's it.
Pop your optical drive into the case, and you're in business. You can take the case apart to be certain of your connection. I noticed, when I did this, that the case and circuit board have places for screws, but no screws were supplied. This is completely screw-less.
However, it works just fine with only one USB connection to my computer. Your mileage may vary.
Mine came with a bezel/faceplate that had a variety of logos on it: RW, DVD, Blu-ray, etc. Unfortunately, the drive I put in mine isn't Blu-ray (that's in the laptop) so the bezel is technically wrong. I wish they'd have supplied a blank bezel with a few logo decals to place on it as needed.
The case is a little loose, and tends to want to slide apart. I taped mine so it wouldn't do that, but be aware it's not a super-sturdy design.
I'm happy with it. It does what I needed it to do. I wish the screws had been included so I could be sure it was a bit more secure, but as a stay-at-home desktop item, it's OK.
And even though this is a review of the item, I have to say the provider was extra-fast, and I appreciate that.

Sabrent SATA CD/DVD/RW USB 2.0 Slim Notebook Drive Enclosure EC-BSAT (CD/DVD burner not Included) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this to house my internal Lenovo Multi III DVD/RW (Panasonic UJ890). It couldn't be recognized when connecting through USB ports of my Thinkpad, or another desktop. However, if I put my blu-ray player (Panasonic UJ240) in this enclosure, then it's recognized and working!! My other external encloser is from JacobsParts, and it works for both blu-ray/DVD-RW drive and DVD/RW drive.
So it's quite weird for me. This just might be that I have a (semi) bad enclosure circuit board. But for now I'll just swap my existing enclosure and use this to house my blu-ray burner/player (Panasonic UJ240).
Will provide update after extensive use and see if it holds up.
