Now for your first question! The answer lies to the board itself some models the answer is yes it will work just fine, others the drive and the board are paired at the factory with an encryption key for "Security reasons". The only way to find out other than looking the model up and whatnot is trying it yourself. In search of the future, new tech, and exploring the universe! All under the cover of anonymity!

Posted January 6 (edited) External and HDD is a fragile combo as HDDs are very sensitive to shocks while running. Probably the reason why your HDD failed. You should consider replacing that HDD with an SSD (or even an USB Flash Drive ?) . But that enclosure should still work. Edited January 6 by leclod I'm willing to swim against the current.
