  Storage box for random drives

  Posted by Nicole Ballivian on September 23, 2016 at 4:47 pm

  Hi Everyone,

  What protective box for storage of your drives do you recommend? Amazon only has ones for 2.5 inch drives, but I have different ones: LaCie rugged and other smaller smaller ones.

  Thanks!

  Nicole

  If you’re talking about storage boxes for “bare” hard drives, I’m a huge fan of the CRU Dataport Anti-static DriveBoxes (formerly made by WiebeTech). They are compact, and very well made and sturdy for typical storage applications. You can buy 10 of them for $50 USD, and they are well worth it.

  For home use I like the Orico PHP-35 storage boxes, as they have nice interlocking grooves, so they are secure when stacked, but I wouldn’t recommend them for frequent usage, since the hinges on those things seem like they would eventually break from repeated fatigue.
