Hi,

I need a case for my FreeAgent Go Portable HDD.

I currently have a local case that was good as I was not carrying my HDD anywhere.

But now I plan to carry it to places & need a better solution.

I need something like this:

This one is available on ebay.com for 9.99 $ Shipped.

But I thought I would ask fellow TE users if there is anything like this available locally.
That way I can avoid hassles of Overseas Shipping & Customs.

There are a few cases available on ebay.in but they appear to be generic cases & I dunno about their quality & if they would fit my drive well. :(

I do not want a overly premium product. Just something that fits the HDD snugly. :P

Any help appreciated. Thanx.
 
^^ Thanx.....

Actually, the Transcend Storejet 2.5" HDD has the USB Slot on the left corner whereas the Seagate Freeagent Go has the slot in the middle. That is my only concern.

I don't want a hole on the case that is misaligned..... :(

BTW, ur avatar is cool..... :)
 
The one shown in pic says water resistant.. But it has a zip in it. How will it protect against water ?

It says "Water Resistant" NOT "Water Proof".....

There is a difference.... Water resistant generally protects from occasional water splashes/drops whereas water proof can protect even when the product is submerged under water....

:D
 
Actually, I want to avoid it as I am looking for something similar locally. :(

But if I don't get any, I'll have to order it. Will let u know about it then....

BTW, I messaged the seller on ebay.in asking him If I could visit him personally to check the case (shown by R3D-D3V1L)& then buy it from him at same price (Discount not needed).

But he hasn't reverted yet.... :(

Wow.... that's cool info.... Thanx.

Repped you..... :)

BTW, how much did u pay for the 3.5 inch case??
 
^^ Hmmm.....

That's a huge amount to pay for a HDD Case..... I mean, the HDD itself costs 3.5k..... :P

And as it carries a 5 year warranty, I would rather get it spoiled & get it RMAed....!!! Lolzzz :D

But thanx neway, Santacruz is closer to my home & I'll try to find the price for my 2.5" drive. It might be less. :)
 
Now that's more reasonable.....

Will check with the dealer & get one if it fits my requirements.

Thanx Punker & karan_n8
 
If you look at the other listings of the seller on ebay.in, you'll notice he has put up the same product for Transcend/Seagate/WD. Several months ago, I had ordered one for my Seagate 2.5" and was not least bit disappointed with the case for the price I paid then. (275-150off voucher = Rs. 125/-)
Attached are the snapshots of the case that was sent to me.

OT: Thanks for the comments about my avatar; I just realized I haven't changed it ever since I joined TE quite a few years back!

^^ Hey.... That's a decent case....

Thanx for taking the trouble to put up snaps..... Repped u.... :)

I am definitely buying this one.... BTW, does ur drive rattle/move around in the case causing the drive to get scratched??

Thanx again.... :)
 
^^ My apologies for the delayed response; have been busy traveling of late.

As for the question - No, the drive doesn't rattle/move around thanks to the band (pls. check 2nd image) that secures the disk firmly in its place.

Cheers!
