Fits my Blu Ray / MDisc drive perfectly
Well impressed with this. You just plug in the SATA cable that comes with the device then slot the drive in until flush. Plug and play USB, works great. Very stylish too, it's made of a nice metallic finish so it's a solid quality product.

Perfect solution for reusing an old optical drive on a new PC (apart from the plug)
Great piece of kit. If you have a suitable optical drive (I had one reclaimed from an old PC), installation is a doddle, and this enclosure is nicely built and works perfectly (on Windows 11 in my case). My main reason for wanting it is to still be able to rip CDs on my new optical drive-less PC, and it works exactly as I expected/hoped. My old drive still rips at high speed (I watched it go up to 37x in my first test). DVDs and Blu-rays play fine with a standard player app. The enclosure comes with USB3.0 cable, screws and screwdriver to secure the drive, and rubber feet. The only frustration is that it comes with a US plug, so you'll need a UK-US plug adapter. UK mains voltage/frequency is fine.

A bit overpriced for build quality
Front and rear frames are made of plastic. Just the body itself is made of aluminum. Positive: The case also fits for longer DVD or Blu-ray drives. In regard of shipping to EU countries the provided power supply unit, which is not suitable for EU power connections, has to be substituted which generates additional costs - just to keep this in mind.

Serviu perfeitamente para acoplar meu drive de DVD/Blu-ray
Ótimo produto, serviu direitinho para colocar o drive de DVD/Blu-ray da Pioneer, que comprei INTERNO, sendo que antigamente esse era usado em gabinetes com baia 5.25 (mas não mais, pois a maioria deles não tem suporte pra tanto, assim como não tem pros antigos disquetes). Este produto é útil para isso, pois transforma esse drive INTERNO de DVD/Blu-ray em EXTERNO, ligando na entrada USB (evitando que tenhamos de comprar modelos EXTERNOS de drives, que não queremos). Inicialmente tive dificuldade de entender como pregar todos os parafusos (o manual não é muito explicativo nesse ponto), mas assistindo a um vídeo da internet, entendi que os da parte de baixo do Vantec também o são com a chave de fenda pequena, fornecida. Feito isso, não ficou sobra nenhuma, o "enclosure" está exatamente como deveria ser. A única ressalva que faço pro VANTEC é o cabo USB fornecido ser muito pequeno. Peguei o de mesma especificação separadamente, com uns 3 metros, pois na minha escrivaninha precisei de mais distância.
