Amazon Basics Small Hard Shell Portable External Hard Drive Carrying Case with Mesh Pocket for My Passport Essential, Black

I bought this for my external HD but it was just a tad too small. However, I can definitely use it for my mini microphone set, the attachment for the back of my phone for the rear facing camera and they fit perfectly. If I can find this a little bigger I will buy again. Zipper works great, and it really is a hard case!!!

It provides excellent protection for the external hard drive and connecting cable that I use for computer backups. It is strong, but lightweight.

I've really gotten to like the Amazon Basics line of peripherals. As a quick example we needed a few HDMI cables for different applications, I have always in the past chosen Monster Cables although have always taken that micro thin gold plating as more of marketing ploy than a true benefit albeit perhaps for the most die hard audiophile. The Monster Cables in the size we needed are sold at places like Best Buy between $69 and $89 - Amazon Basics cables a mere $9.99, it was a no brainer. The cables are excellent, not a single problem and no compromise in audio or video whatsoever. This case is no exception - just perfect for you're Passport. I ordered the 2 TB in black and saw this case pop up on the lower part of the buy page and figured we;;, that makes sense - I hadn't thought about a case. The case itself fits the My Passport perfectly and it's surprisingly well made. A tight outer Nylon shell that looks and feels like Neoprene, sturdy coasted zipper with an Amazon Logo rubber pull and close tab is a nice little touch. Inside there's plenty of room for room the Passport which is held securely in place by a wide elastic easy to slide into band - a mesh pocket on the other holds your USB cable and a few other small items if you need it too. Remember the case is not a "Hard Shell" but it's robust enough to protect your Passport, the cable and a few other items from both the elements and with fingers crossed an unfortunate drop. It's great for when your on the run, need to grab your grab you external drive in hurry and go! It's fit in oversized pockets and I would imagine any briefcase, shoulder bag or Lap Top carrying bag with ease. As for the Amazon Basics Packaging - I'm a fan. Less crap in our landfills, easy to open and you still get every single item and all instructions, paper - works etc that you would in retail packaging. What is more, to those of you who can emphasis with how much I despise those hermetically sealed heavy duty clamshell packages which you need the "JAWS OF LIFE" to one get open and two - not cut yourself this is major improvement. Great Case, Under 6 bucks! PRIME membership gives you two day free shipping, simply a terrific value.

I purchased this Amazon Basics Hard Shell Case for my 4 Tb Western Digital Passport drive. I keep All of my Cricut (everything) on this drive, and work off of it, too. (It saves my laptop from an over-load). I was skeptical this hard case would be too small when it arrived. But! It fits perfect! My drive is safer in this case than it was in it's original box! And, the best part, I can leave it in this case while using it! It is easy to put in and take out of the case, a little snug, but still not hard to work with. The case is made very well. It's a Nylon look and feel, yet, it has a hard plastic feel to it for protection, and I know with confidence, it will protect my drive! Check out the 2 photos I attached. The price was not that high and was money well spent! I will buy from this brand again and I highly recommend you do to.

This case fits the WD My Passord SE 750 GB/ 1TB edition well, with some extra space to spare. It has two pockets which can be used for either the hard drive or the cable. The picture was accurate and showed this quite well. The shell is quite hard, and offers excellent protection from pressure and moderate bumps (not sure how it would hold up with drops...). There is a little extra space for one or two additional cables of similar size to the one that comes with the hard drive. Given that, everything is still extremely secure in both pockets. The zipper is shielded from the inside of the case to avoid scratching - a good design technique. My largest criticism for this case is that there isn't much padding. There is a very thin protective layer that composes the orange material, but it's about 1 millimeter thick and doesn't act well as padding. Because of this, I wouldn't count on exemplary drop protection. Also, there is minimal padding protection between the two sides. I could see sharp objects (especially cable heads) from the screened pocket scratching a hard drive. Also, the fit for the hard drive a little tight in either pocket, making it a wee bit difficult to remove or insert. On the other hand this does offer a very secure fit. Because of the fitting issues, but mostly for the lack of a more protective divider inside the case, I don't think this case quite deserves 5-stars. WD offers a case (which has been criticized as being more accurately represented as a sleeve) that is softer and smaller, but it doesn't offer the same level of crush/pressure protection that this one does. Because the Amazon case is larger, it's doesn't fit an average size pocket well. As a size comparison: the WD case fits inside the Amazon case with the hard drive and USB cable present inside itself. The fit is tight though and I wouldn't doing this recommend this for practical use. Bottom line: this case does what is advertised to do. Personally, I prefer the WD edition. I'm still satisfied with this edition - the WD case just better suits my needs (the small size of the WD case is really nice). I'd recommend this case for anyone looking for the extra protection. The 4 stars are well earned. I'd give 4.25 stars if possible.

I've only ever owned one other portable hard drive case, which was from Case Logic. So, I'll be making comparisons to that one. FIT - This AmazonBasics case fits my new WD 2TB My Passport portable hard drive perfectly. Both the new hard drive & this AmazonBasics case are slightly rectangular, but also more squarish, shorter in length, than older passport/portable-type hard drives (WD 2TB My Passport portable hard drive: black with mesh pattern, as seen in the user "Tom" submitted photo above). The old Case Logic case I have fits my old WD 500GB My Passport portable hard drive well, as the case & drive were both slightly more rectangular, and thus longer in length. BUILD - The AmazonBasics case I received was well-built. When pressing in the middle of the case to test how sturdy this case is compared to my old Case Logic one, I found that the AmazonBasics case was sturdier, with little 'give' when pressing/squeezing in the middle of the case, as compared to the Case Logics case I had, which gives way much more, and seems slightly less sturdy. But, they are both comparable in terms of build in my opinion. FLAW? - One slight problem I have with my AmazonBasics case is that when I fully unzip the case, it lays in an open position, but will not close, while being unzipped all the way. My Case Logic case will allow you to close the case, even if fully unzipped. I think this has to do with the padding behind the zipper being so full in the AmazonBasics case that it doesn't allow closing in the unzipped position. This could be a matter of sewing quality, which may be only present in some AmazonBasics cases, and not others. In summary, I find this AmazonBasics case to be well-built and sturdy. It fulfills my need to keep my new WD 2TB My Passport portable hard drive protected. At just $5.89, this is an absolute steal, being the cheapest price I've ever seen on a hard carrying case for a portable hard drive, and especially compared to how much I paid for my old Case Logic case. Please keep making more AmazonBasics products, Amazon!

Works great, is compact, has decent padding inside, and very portable. Has a sturdy zipper, and nice durable hard shell for protecting your sensitive USB hard drives or external SSD drives. Also has a nice small mesh pocket inside for storing the hard drives USB cable.

I love this case. Feels very sturdy. Very good protection. Does not feel cheap, has a good weight to it. Easy to use. Good grip. Fits the Western Digital My Passport Essential SE External hard drive PERFECTLY!

Buen empaque le caben todas mis memorias USB y un disco duro pequeño.

Passt perfekt zur **WD Elements AE 5 TB** (Version 2025). Ich habe lange nach einer passenden Tasche gesucht. Weder KI noch die bisherigen Amazon-Rezensionen konnten eindeutig bestätigen, ob auch die etwas dickere **5-TB-Version** hineinpasst. Daher möchte ich diese Information gerne weitergeben: **Ja, sie passt perfekt!** Die Festplatte misst **110 × 81 × 21 mm**, die Tasche ist mit **119,9 × 93,0 × 16 mm** angegeben. Trotz der geringeren Innenhöhe lässt sich die Festplatte problemlos verstauen. Auch das mitgelieferte USB-Kabel findet Platz, wenn man es flach einlegt und darauf achtet, dass sich Kabel und Anschlüsse nicht überlappen. Ich bin mit der Passform sehr zufrieden und kann die Tasche für die WD Elements AE 5 TB uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Excellent produit : coque suffisamment rigide que pour bien protéger les disques durs - taille parfaite. Le produit répond pleinement à ce que j'en attendais

😉🐞👍 excellent étui.
