Title: Hard Drive Storage Case
Post by: Fred Salamon on July 10, 2016, 08:52:24 pm

Any suggestions for cases to store individual 3.5 inch hard drives?
I was using Hudzee cases but I cannot find them available in less than a case of 10.
Emails to Hudzee have so far been unanswered.

What are you looking for the case to provide?

Thanks for your response and the links.
Want to have the drive protected from dust, and make transporting a drive for off site storage a bit safer and easier.

I found these:
DriveBox (https://www.cru-inc.com/products/accessories/drivebox/)
Looks like a suitable replacement for the Hudzee cases I have been using.
Should arrive later this week and hopefully it will work for me.

Curious though as to what others are using for single HD storage.

A solid box offers good protection... and what I should do.
I have a few drives that I keep handy for various uses. Presently I store them in zip lock bags in a draw next to my (recently switched to) iMac. I use them in a two dock docking station from time to time..
