Hard Drive Enclosure

I have a mid 2012 15" macbook pro and recently upgrade to SSD.

I want to put my old HDD in an enclosure.


Will the following kit from OWC works? Thanks.

Mac / PC / USB 3.0 & 2.0

for a 2.5" Serial ATA (SATA) I/II/III hard drive or SSD

offering the ultimate combination of style and

value in portable data storage and backup.
