Hard drive enclosures come in many shapes and sizes, and they can be a very useful gadget for taking large amounts of data with you if need be.

Today for review I've got another portable hard drive enclosure, but this on is a bit different, it features a dock that fits into your 5.25” bay. You insert the enclosure into the dock, transfer your data, then just pop the enclosure back out and away you go. It's a nice idea that I find very useful and convenient.
