ORICOExternal Hard Drive Case for 3.5 Inch HDD/SSD 5 Packs Portable Hard Drive Carrying Protective Storage Box Anti-Static and Shockproof -PHX5S

These HD storage cases are perfect for storing individual 3.5" SATA drives!I bought a set of five cases for my audio recording business. We use several SATA Seagate drives (500GB to 2TB) for multiple recording systems (hot-swappable SATA bays and external SATA Docks), with active project backups and archive. We have several 'inactive' drives at any one time, and occasionally need to transport drives to locations. Until now, we have slipped the drives back into the original anti-static plastic sleeves and stowed them in a foam-cushioned case. Not so great - potential for loose foam pieces, dust, dirt, and secure fit were all concerns. Also not convenient if you want to just take one drive to a location or studio.These cases feature a sturdy construction (plastic thickness and quality is quite good); a good snap latch; good edge seal (wouldn't dunk these in water, but a spill shouldn't be a disaster). All of my drives fit them, though the 2TB drives ARE snug. The cases stack without sliding around from a slight bump of the table/desk. Case label is limited to a few lines, enough for drive name and general description. No space for a long list of items, but you can always keep a detailed list on paper in the case (e.g., print screen of your drive's file browser window). We keep logs of project locations, and just designate Drive Name/Letter.The anti-static/shock matting inside is an excellent feature; it lines the entire inside of the case. The lining is rather firm, not flexible and foamy, so don't expect much soft cushioning... which wouldn't be much protection to a hunk of metal anyway. Granted, I wouldn't be dropping these things, but the quality of construction is reassuring.Very happy with these, and will be purchasing another 5 (or more) cases! Price for the quality of these is fine; much better than sliding your drive into a thin plastic box with ridges and a few strips matting. Definitely worth protecting your investment!Please note:The previous review knocks the rating down to 4 Stars because of the price of the product, actually shows customer pics of the cases... and it's a different model of case. The review needs to be moved to the correct product.

i have a lot of these cases that i store disks in. the are durable, padded and awesome

In some ways these are well made, but also concerning.THE GOOD: They're made out of a tough plastic with good padding on the inside that's covered with fabric. They have a good professional appearance. Hard drives fit perfectly in them. All very nice.THE LESS GOOD: The latch is poorly designed, making them unnecessarily difficult to open and hard on the fingernails. I think I'm going to use a screwdriver to open them so I don't break a nail. Also, the hinge is molded with a strip of very thin plastic. I will be curious to find out if the hinge can hold up over the long haul, but still, it's 5" long, so that's good.CONCLUSION: Construction is good for the price point, but still, it could easily be better.
