Pay shipping of $6 for this 2.5 External Case and it is yours--today only.

Thanks, in for 1

The reason they do that for 2.5" drives is it's just a case with a single chip, no power supply required.

Mine came in today, nice aluminum case, well designed, the best I have seen over the years. Drive is in and all is working well. Not bad for $6, and shipped to my door via USPS.

Thanks again for the tip Buf.

Happy to hear your good news and may it serve you well. I would have ordered one but had no need for a 2.5 case.

I have several empty 2.5" cases in my closet.

I am sure I will in a few years. :-)

I am waiting for a $50 terabyte thumbdrive, might be a few more years.

I suspect it will only be two-three years, solid state drives are coming on fast.

You may be right. Not sure how long it will take to commercialize this recent development ...
