Will my Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 1TB 2.5-Inch SATA III Single Unit Version Internal Solid State Drive fit and work in this enclosure?

It should if the form factor is similar in dimensions to the 250gb model. Only issue I had with my 250 model was removing the drive from the case after cloning the HDD. It's thin enough that it doesn't get ejected like the fatter drives do. Had to use pliers to grab the drive gently to extract out from the case. Worked well otherwise.

it will fit. However if your drive is one of the new thin drives, then you might have a problem. This enclosure is using a sling/eject mechanism. That said, I put my brand new EVO 840 (256G - not that it matters) disk into it. When tried to eject, the drive didn't come out. Instead, the eject mechanism scratched my drive really nice and deep. There my drive went straight out of this case and I might use this as a backup attached to a mac over usb3 and a normal HDD. If your drive is the new 7mm thin one, look somewhere else.... Quality-wise this doesn't compare to my other external cases. I use Macally (2.5) and Lacie d2 Quadra's and this product is just not there in quality. it will fit.

Yes, it will work with it. Just open it up and plug it in then close it. So easy to use it with this.

It should. My 750gb evo worked. But, be warned that you wont get near sata 3 speed from this enclosure via usb 3. Look at the Minipro usb 3 enclosure instead, it will give you faster performance for a ssd.

It will fit but im not sure if will work. For me it did not work when i used ssd and sata.

Yes...But the design is flawed. The USB cable kept falling out causing errors. I found the female connector is recessed and doesn't make full contact. I had to cut that part of the box off.

It should. It is an enclosure for a 2.5 inch internal hard drive with an USB 3.0 connection

For the solid state drive I use Samsung 840 EVO 2.5 inch 250 GB.Works wonderful!

Without knowing the size of the drive I can not answer. Look at the description for the product and it should give you the inside dimensions of the case to see whether it will fit or not.

Yes, all 2.5 in HDD will. I installed a Samsung 840 pro SSD and it fit perfectly.

You know I couldn't tell you. If it has a sata 2 1/2" drive It will Fit and work just fine. Sorry that's all I know.

I have used Seagate and Western Digital 3.5" SATA Hard Drives in this enclosure. It should not matter what make drive it is, so long as your OS supports the size you plan to install (i.e. 2TB or 3TB)

The size matches, and a 1" thick drive fits, too. The enclosure accepts SATA drives only, not IDE drives. Please verify that.

It should fit fine, all you'd have to do is switch the front face plate from your old drive onto this one and it'd work fine with no extra space showing. not 100% sure, but it should work

The official website says that it does fit a 2.5" SATA drive. It also shows the bracket mount. Is the model number wrong here?

This drive should be compatible with any 3.5 in drive. I have two Seagates in two of these and my experience is if it fits a SG, it will fit a WD. Your WD SATA 3 internal drive will work well in this enclosure.

Will Samsung Magician software work with Samsung SSD 850 EVO installed into this enclosure?

Hi Collin, Short answer is Yes! The external enclosure that comes with the drive in the upgrade bundle package is a fairly basic pass-through USB to SATA device. So, it should work with pretty much any SATA 2.5-inch drive. Thank you for using the HyperX 3K! -Jewel @ HyperX Technical Support

John Jamieson is not correct in stating that SATA is backwards-compatible. It all depends on the manufacturer's specifications. You'll find that some of Samsung's SSDs (look at the EVO) will work with SATA-I, SATA-II, and SATA-III, while the Crucial M500 SSD will only work with SATA-II and SATA-III.

Honestly, I'm not familiar with that type of drive. If I'm reading your description right, your drive is an 80gb SATA drive. The case is made to work with eithera SATA or IDE drive. As long as it is a 3.5 inch drive and matches that, you're good. If it's a 2.5 inch drive, you'll need a different case.

SATA III is backwards-compatible with SATA II and SATA I. So this enclosure should work, it will just run at SATA II speed instead of SATA III, which won't make a difference anyway because USB 3.0 is only 1 GBps and SATA II is 3.0 GBps...

the 3.5" slot is the correct size for all normal HDDs and DVD drives. most likely your case only has 3.5" slots, so you will need an additional 2.5" bracket. the SSD will screw into the bracket and then the bracket will slide into the 3.5" slot.
