" ...  This enclosure works really well, just inspect the package for all of the parts. ... Double-check to ensure you've applied your foam "shim" to keep the drive completely movement-free while in the case. ... I get that it's a "hot swap" enclosure, however, some foam or extra molded supports could have gone a long way to help this enclosure feel like it's actually protecting my drive a bit better.  ...  "
