HDD Enclosure for a 2TB Sata drive

[Naks]

Hi all

Just got this 2Tb drive as a present and need an enclosure for it.

Looking on various online shops, but they all seem to only handle 1Tb!?

Can anyone recommend a good 2Tb Sata - USB enclosure, thanks!

There's no real difference between 1tb and 2tb. They should be able to handle 2tb fine.

The CX can support HDDs up to 2 TB and is compatible with Mac OS X and Windows

That should set your mind at ease.

SATA II is SATA II... the protocol has no set limits, it comes down to if you OS can recognize multi-terabyte file systems.

Try get a casing that has esata. Copying hundreds of gigs over usb2 is painful.
