Is this drive a 3.5" SATA? I would like to put it in a new enclosure if possible.

I don't know if it is SATA. But my computer hardware store can't fix it, and I have to send to a special lab and spend $2000 to give it a try. The tech guy told me that this particular serial number has long been plagued with the issue, and the company still try to unload them. I don't like the company and any thing from it.

Yes, it's 3.5" and SATA. You can find more information on the drive itself at this link: Seagate 1TB Desktop HDD SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive (ST1000DM003)

Not that I recall. If you mess with the housing you will invalidate the warranty which they have shortened to 1 year. I went through three of these in four months on warrnaty as they had to be replaced. The final replacement, the 4th, lasted one week past its 1 yr warranty. Seagate has lost my business: it should lose yours.

Yes, it is a 3.5" SATA drive. I have one of them, and it has been a good external drive.

Hello ADave, the one that I got was def. for a 3.5" drive. The drive that I installed into it came from a home "tower" style computer, Dell if I remember correctly. Have you tried to install a drive into it yet? The case for mine was actually quite a bit bigger than and drive, prob for heat dissipation, but def for a 3.5" drive. Mine works flawlessly and allowed me to recover the info I had in the computer that died. I now use it for a back up storage.

I did a search and the drive you mentions comes up as a SATA 3.5" drive. So, yes, this would work.

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.

Yes, you can use your SATA drive in the enclosure. Please note, if it is a high capacity drive it will require special formatting. You can find that information and instructions on how to do that on the Web.

3.5" drives, but can't say how useful it will be, haven't had a chance to try it yet.

Physically Any 3.5" hdd should fit fine. As far as drive specifications, I have two bays in my server, 1 has a 1.5TB and the other has a 2TB drive. I can't test anything larger as my larger drives are SAS rather than Sata.

It should fit any 3.5" drive bay assuming you are installing this drive in place of the existing unit. I returned this particular unit because it didn't come with the HD transfer kit. I purchased another brand that included the kit. If you plan on installing the HD yourself make sure you get a SSD with a transfer kit.

It's a typo on Amazon. The drive is SATA III. Hardly any drive are SATA III anymore. Click here -> http://www.wdc.com/global/products/specs/?driveID=1049&language;=1

2.5 inch, no room for an 3.5 drive you should go with the SSD, its easier on the power supply. I am not sure the compatibility between sata 2 & sata 3, the box has USB 3, that is good. I was surprised to see the box run win server 2012 when we loaded it as a domain controller.

SATA 2.5 (laptop drives) work with this, SATA 3.5 (desktop computer hard drives) you need the bigger enclosure they also sell on amazon. I used this with my Playstation 3 hard drive. If you have the hard drive out already it should be about 2.5 inches width, if you bought it somehwere they should list it in the info in the specs.

An internal SATA 3.5" or 2.5" (2.5" needs a bracket to hold the HDD) would be compatible with this system, Western Digital and Seagate are both ok with this system, thank you.

It should work fine, though I haven't used that brand drive myself. It's the correct type (SATA III).

I put a 3TB in it and it does not recognize the entire drive. I have 746.52GB unusable space on the Disk.

I've used this in a desktop, but the form factor is the same of the others 2.5", just slightly slimmer, it should fit in any 2.5" sata bay. You can find the exact dimensions on the vendor though

Yes, you can put it in an 3.5 inch SATA enclosure or just use an USB SATA adapter to connect to your computer.
