sticker pocket
Can you recommend a sticker pocket? I looked, and I'm not sure which ones might be suitable for holding a hard drive to a laptop.
What I've always done is: a clear acrylic ~$15 shell for the MacBook. Which is something I do anyway. And then I velcro-tape the drive to that shell.

It's kinda funny that you can buy a 256 GB SSD for less than the price of this sticker-pocket, usb cable combo. My Macbook has a 256 GB internal SSD that can barely handle installing both the OS and XCode at the same time!
- JohnBooty 4y agoAh, thanks! Really appreciate it! Looks neat. And you're happy with it? No chance of the drive sliding out?
- LarsDu88 4y agoIt's pretty secure. You can honestly save money be going with the stock USB c cable and duct tape, but I prefer the aesthetics of the pocket and short cable
- JohnBooty 4y agolol, I use velcro tape, not duct tape. https://www.amazon.com/VELCRO-Brand-Industrial-Strength-Thickness/dp/B000VR8B3K?th=1 https://www.amazon.com/VELCRO-Brand-Industrial-Strength-Thic... Although duct tape sounds pretty amazing now that you mention it. If somebody walked into a hacker meetup with a drive duct taped to their laptop I'd assume they were pretty awesome.
