Excellent product for very little money
I bought this to expand my router which had run out of ethernet ports.
Setup was plug and play, just a power cable, an ethernet cable to my router and ethernet cables to my devices. Everything worked straight away and I didn't have to change any settings on my computers.
My home network still works perfectly and transfer speeds are what you would expect from a gigabit switch (around 110MB).
If you're looking for a cheap way to expand you ethernet ports then this does the job perfectly.

Cheaply made but work
My main concern with these is that they were covered in rough edges. I bought them to replace the brakes on a child's bike and I had to sand the plastic down to avoid the risk of injury.
They are very cheaply made and probably wouldn't stand up to being used by an adult but should be fine for younger children assuming you clean up the rough bits.
I had to adjust the reach on these and while the adjustment mechanism worked, the screw was very tight in the housing and felt like it could strip the threads if I wasn't careful.
In summary, they do work but you can get much better quality brake levers for not much more money.

Good cheap caddy but power supply poor
1 of 1 found this helpful My only gripe about this caddy is the shoddy psu that comes with it. It's not capable of supplying enough current for some drives. It was fine with a 3.5" sata HDD but it would constantly drop the connection to my pc when used with a couple of ide drives. I noticed the ide drives both specified 1.5A on the 12V and 5V rails but the psu is only capable of supplying 2A max. I swapped the psu for another I had that is rated for 4A and the caddy now works perfectly with any drive.
So far the maximum size HDD I've used is a 750GB and it worked fine. Transfer speeds are normal for a USB 2.0 device, averaging 30-35MB/s.
The caddy looks pretty good and doesn't feel cheap, plus the frame is metal so it acts as a heatsink for the drive. That comes in handy as there is no cooling fan so you have to rely on the passive cooling abilities of the case.
All in all I'm happy with it but I recommend you check how much power your drive needs before purchasing this.
