Does it take 2.5" Hard Drives, as well?

This enclosure is made for 3.5 HHD only, however, if one uses a 3.5 to 2.5 HDD Bay Converter, it 'll take any 2.5 HHD as well.

I believe your hard drive is 2.5 inch. Check the specification of the cable wether it is a ZIF type or PATA/etc.

There is no drive included, but there is a bay that supports 2.5 inch drives. I currently use a 240gb mSATA for the OS and 1tb for misc files and media.

Yes. There is no need to purchase any cables to install 1 internal 2.5" drive. I used a Samsung SSD and it works perfectly (with no additional cables required).

Greetings, Great question. Currently, 1TB and 2TB drives are available in the 2.5" form factor with a height dimension of 9.5mm. The height dimension is important for physical compatibility with this configuration. Best regards, MITXPC

If it ends up with the same form-factor as a 2.5" drive, then yes, I would imagine so.

Will only fit 3.5" drives. You have to get your own adapters if you want to fit 2.5" drives.

I believe the drive I installed in it was 1TB. Actually, as long as it's a 2.5 inch drive, the capacity, I believe, is irrelevant.

The rack is built for 3.5, however Amazon has adaptors to mount a 2.5 inch drive.

NO, this drive is for 3.5 Stiffy Disks only. (5.25 disks need a special computer card that couples via a USB cable and an old 5.25 drive with an old PC power supply to drive it)

If you are referring to drive connectors then it has 6, you can use SATA drives but for 2.5" you'll need a tray adapter.

the other two replies here are a bit misleading; yes all notebook-sized hard drives are 2.5" platters, but the drive height is what makes a difference. standard is 9.5mm, while the drive you linked is 12.5mm. i haven't actually received the laptop yet, though i did read a review saying there appeared to be enough room for a larger drive like that.safest bet is to stick with 9.5mm height drives, of which 1tb varieties were recently made available. hope this helps!

I'm believe you're confusing the 2.5" HD enclosures and external HD with the 3.5" ones. 2.5" are powered only by USB where as the latter require use of the included AC adapter. 1) I believe any decreased performance would be due to the drive's quality (manufacturer) and how often the drive it's defragmented. In any case they should be minute. 2) It wouldn't seem likely the other USB devices be sluggish unless perhaps your using multiple tasks with a slow CPU, not enough RAM, low PSU, etc. 3) Answered above.

No, but you can purchase one. It needs to be a 3.5 slot converter. For 2.5". I am sure they are cheap. This is a great drive because I have it. Good luck

Yes & No. For internal you need a 2.5" drive. If you put in an enclosure (like I did) you can attach via firewire or USB and will work just fine.

This is a laptop size hard drive so yes, it's 2.5 inches the same as all laptops
