Does it matter which external hard drive case to choose?

I saw branded external hard drive case and unbranded.

Questions about unbranded:

• Must i check first if case supports S.M.A.R.T.?


• When it comes to S.M.A.R.T. should I consider branded rather than unbranded?


• Do external cases have a limit of hard drive capacity, or does every case supports any capacity?

Are there other things I am missing?
