I bought 2x http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SEATAY-Desktop-3-5-SATA-HDD-ROM-Internal-Mobile-Rack-Enclosure-for-5-25-Bay-/171534380094?hash=item27f03eec3e:g:bDUAAOSwcF9UX00i and they are very harsh on the HDD connectors with scratches/wear on the copper pads and the door is real hard to close, feels like the connection is too tight or misaligned. Also one of the two sounds like it drops the connection to HDD and reconnects occasionally, though never drops from devices in my computer, like it spins down. they have some software that allows spindown, but i have not set it to do so. Those ports the 2 hotswaps are connected to are set in bios to hotswap.
Thinking i may just toss these and buy some better quality units. I would like to find some that only takes 3.5 sata, not 2.5, has a cooling fan, is kind to connectors, looks good, works flawlessly, Bought easily in Australia . Also have noticed some have a power switch too for on/off of HDD, is this mainly for desktops without the Hot Swap capability or?
Anyone suggest any i should buy
