    Best usb 3.0 external caddy?

    Looking to upgrade my externals from usb 2.0 to 3.0 as usb2 is so SLOW! Well it may just be the caddy but still, need to improve it.

    I doubt theres any that dont require external power so cant really make that a needed feature (be nice if possible but its only for 2.5" drives iirc).
    Needs to house 3.5" drive, one or two doesnt bother me as i still have a 2bay usb2.0 one here that will be used for slow transfer/permanent storage.
    Relatively small, in no offensive style e.g. in black
    Connections, usb 3.0 required and any extras are bonuses (E-Sata or something!)
    Budget <£20

    Any ideas?

    Take a look at this one for £17.99. The site has links to other options if not quite what you want.

    I am thinking of doing something similar with a conversion on my USB 2.0 external drives.
