About this tag
The usb housing tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about using external USB enclosures to access internal drives from other computers. A common topic is whether a Windows 8 drive placed in a USB housing and connected to a Windows 10 system will retain login protection, and how to access files without the original credentials.
