Hi everybody,

I got a spare WD Green HDD case laying around, and I was wondering if I could buy a USB 3.1 case and turn it into a external HDD?

I have never seen a USB 3.1 case, anyway, unless you want USB 3.1 because it's reversible, you can use USB 3.0

I wanted it for the higher read/write speed.

It's a hard drive, even the fastest HDD would work at 100% speed with USB 3.0

Ah okay, I thought USB 3.0 wasn't enough. Thats great, thanks :)
