Hi there, I would like to know if the case where I can connect my 2.5" HD also come on this packet?

Your hard drive should have already come with a set of cables (either HD/Firewire/USB). This case does not come with any cables and the picture provided by Amazon only shows how your cables can fit into the case.

There is no way to connect an AC adapter to this case, nor should you need to with a 2.5" drive. However, should the need arise, a "Y" cable is included that allows one end to be plugged into a computer (or USB power adapter) for extra power. I would recommend a 5V 1A adapter and USB extension cable should you want to try that.

Hello, there is a 2.5" SATA drive inside the case. A Momentus 5400.3 to be exact.

Yes, it should work w/ any 2.5" SATA drive. I've been using it for the past year w/o any problems (knock on wood)

I think you would be better served with a power adapter hub... search "usb hub with power adapter" on Amazon. I wouldn't put a HD on this Sabrent USB 4port Hub 2.0, it seems to lose connections with HDs too easily.

It is a case. It doesnt have mounting spots for 2.5 SSD drives, but if your SSD has a 3.5 adaptor it would work fine

You can order an adapter easier. Check Amazon for a 800 to 400 They are so cheap and easier to carryI was looking into this myself except I have a few three port external HDs and I just use that set upEasy either way. The cables will recognize... I do it all the time in the above situation.

Just pick up a 2.5" external enclosure. Choose the flavor of connection (Thunderbolt, USB, Firewire)

Hey Tom, you just need an SATA port and a 2.5inches and 9.5mm bay for your installation.

You should use the power adapter with 3.5" drives. You really don't need to with 2.5" drives

Greetings, Yes, absolutely. The SATA port supports both 2.5" hard drives and Solid State Drives.Best regards,MITXPC

Thank you. That seems to be the norm. I have a 5 TB i want to dock and cant seem to find anything

An internal SATA 3.5" or 2.5" (2.5" needs a bracket to hold the HDD) would be compatible with this system, Western Digital and Seagate are both ok with this system, thank you.

Yes you can. You can either just place it somewhere in the case( it has no moving parts) or you can use a bracket that comes with it that will fit into the standard 3.5 slot a normal HD would slide into

Yes, I have the manual and it says you can connect USB thumb drive to it. I am not sure about an USB 2.5" HDD as this external drive requires some strong power source to operate properly.

You only have to worry about two major things: form factor, which is whether or not it will physically fit the device (HDDs are generally only 2.5" or 3.5") and interface, which is how it electronically connects (usually SATA currently, but mSATA is here and you can still find PATA, SCSI and others).If those match, it will function. You might want bigger or faster or quieter, but it would still function.

I say yes, supports 2.5I think you misread. The description says 'single 3.5" or 2.5" SATA drive' It also says 2.5 is ok on their website. I only used 3.5 on these but it definitely looks capable of having 2.5.Side note: Make sure the side of the 2.5 HD is flat. I remember on Macbook HDs, they have a little nub that sticks out where the screws are, which would make it not fit in this dock since it lays flat against the side wall. Would need to remove the nub on the HD first.
