| 1381519 | 2014-08-12 03:30:00 | I have several HDDs, some are ok, some are quite suspect. To make it easier to check them, I have thought of using a caddy. I have looked at Easyswap Pro+ which fits into a 5 1/2" bay (USB2) and a Digitus DA-71035 external USB3. Any thoughts on these two or would you recommend something else to consider. |

| 1381520 | 2014-08-12 04:11:00 | I use Vipower mobile sata racks :en.vipower.com Paradigm used to stock them, but I don't think they do now. Ascent have this model :www.ascent.co.nz I have 3 of these which are all plastic with key lock, and 3 aluminium bodied ones which have a slide swich. Unfortunately the two types are not interchangeable. If you are going to fit caddies into 5 1/2" bays then SATA may be better, otherwise if the caddy is external then it would need to be USB. I modified one inner tray to take a SSD drive. |

| 1381522 | 2014-08-12 09:25:00 | What will work better, especially if only testing is a Hard Drive Dock, Something like www.ascent.co.nz Simply plug in Via USB, snap the drive in. Saves having to dismantle enclosures all the time. Do a google search for Hard Drive Dock, there's plenty of them, different brands etc. |
