HDD enclosures Wavlink ./. Orico. HDD 2,5 ” Recycling

I did already buy some Orico products and have been quite happy with them.

For some reason, when I needed a HDD enclosure for my old HDD (taken out of my broken Lenovo Ideapad S10) I bought a Wavlink enclosure. Maybe because Wavlink was promising that it were working with all SATA types … SATA I/II/III. Orico publishes less information.

Reason for doing this is that I like to reuse the harddisks. Already did have some problems accessing the MicroSD card on my Raspberry and now trying to save data on an external HDD.

I do have a HDD SATA adapter as well, but an enclosure is more beautiful than leaving the HDD with an adapter on the office desk .

However, when the Wavlink enclosure has been shipped, I saw that there was no access to the data. So this enclosure was quite useless.

The solution to this problem was ordering an Orico encloser, which, in fact was working.
