"I was frustrated that even as an old time geek I was having a terrible time with Amazon trying to find the proper cabling/enclosure needed for an external 2.5" drive through an e-sata port. Not only did newmodeus.com had a single item with the right cable and enclosure needed, but it was just $19.95 and shipping was a very reasonable $6.77 (from California to Virginia). On top of that, the package was here in just two days. The cable and enclosure work perfectly (it took me longer to eject the old drive from Windows 7 than what it took to plug it back in with the new cable and have it show in my machine as an e-SATA drive), I am already planning on picking up at least one more for myself and I will probably have two more for coworkers that are going through the same issue.

The ordering process was painless, and I got update emails every time my order status changed up until a tracking number had been assigned."

"I was looking for a hard-to-find or expensive-to-order-from-manufacturer hard drive caddy for a relatively new Lenovo/IBM ThinkPad. I had ordered a CTO unit with no hard drive and I thought it would come with this part. New Mode had it for 1/2 the price of the OEM and even included the rubber shock absorbing rails which the OEM wanted you to pay for. Shipped next day and received quickly (though I live in the same state). Great communication with a tracking number as well. Just a satisfied customer. "
