Hard drive without a case?
Hard drive without a case?
If you purchase a hard drive without an enclosure, it's important to consider whether mounting it safely is possible or if you must buy one. You can also explore options for buying an enclosure that still permits internal mounting. This particular hard drive caught your attention because of its low price, but you're concerned about internal installation.
If I purchase a hard drive without an enclosure, can I safely mount it without one or should I buy an enclosure? I’m considering this drive because it’s inexpensive, but I need to be able to install it internally. I was checking this specific model: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00752..._qh_dp_hza. Thanks in advance for any advice.

The image is meant only for showing purposes. It isn't the actual product, as the platter is not visible. The price seems reasonable considering it's a standard 3TB drive.
