The Blackmagic Design HDD Case 10-Pack (Manufacturer SKU: DWCLDK/CASE/HD or DWCLDK/CASE/HD/10) is a pack of protective plastic storage shells engineered explicitly to house bare 3.5-inch mechanical hard disk drives.
While its sister product (the SSD 12-pack) is built for 2.5-inch solid-state media, this 10-pack is custom-tailored for the bulkier footprint of desktop spinning hard drives. It is an essential archival accessory for data managers and digital imaging technicians (DITs) deploying high-capacity workflow stations like the Blackmagic Cloud Backup 8.
The Nostalgic Form Factor & Functionality
-
The Broadcast "Beta Tape" Profile: Just like the SSD variant, Blackmagic designed these rugged enclosures to visually mimic vintage Betacam broadcast tape cases. This design allows production houses to cleanly line up archived hard drives on control room shelves, maintaining a classic studio look while utilizing modern digital storage.
-
One-Piece Snap-Lock Clamshell: Molded out of a rigid, anti-static composite hard plastic, each case relies on a heavy-duty living hinge and a tight mechanical front latch. When snapped shut, the drive is sealed against dust ingress, environmental moisture, and superficial static shock during shipping or storage.

Workflow Application: The Cloud Backup 8
In modern post-production pipelines, mechanical hard drives remain the most cost-effective solution per terabyte for long-term project archiving. Devices like the Blackmagic Cloud Backup 8 allow users to slide up to eight bare 3.5" HDDs into hot-swappable network slots simultaneously. Once a project is finalized and the drive is completely full, editors eject the bare disk, slide it into one of these protective HDD cases, write the project details on the spine, and replace it with a fresh blank drive.
