Hi,

I hope someone can help - I need the ability to remove a sata drive from time to time from my case and need to find a sata enclosure that is preferably 5.25" and will work with a SATA 6GB drive. I assume if an enclosure was not 6GB compatible the drive would fall back to a lower speed? - it's not a huge problem if drive has to revert to a slower speed but I just need to find something to make it work for me. Does not need to have hot swap . Its a further backup drive I can remove etc..

Can anyone recommend an enclosure/drive bay (in the uk) I can fit into my case that will work. I know I could just mount the drive in the vast space in my case but this isn't what I want to achieve.

Many thanks in advance!

I'm not recommending this, since I don't know if this will be available in the UK or not, and I'm not inclined to try and find stuff on sites I'm not familiar with. I am, however, offering you a link to a Us website with a product that I think *might* do what you need.

I would also suggest that you look at 3.5" drive docks with USB attachments, such as often used by PC technicians.
