= It's easy to remove the internal SATA drive for use without the USB enclosure
"in a non-destructible way "
= You can remove it without destroying the enclosure, so if you wanted or needed to, you could put it back the way it was and it would be difficult or impossible to tell that you had ever taken it apart
"for NAS or other use"
= Many people take the internal drives from these and put them in a NAS because these are typically good drives and much cheaper than buying the bare drive would be
"using a cut-up gift card or other plastic."
= The enclosure can be removed using anything similar to a plastic gift card, hotel room key, etc. YouTube has a ton of how-to videos for "Shucking" drives
"If you are susceptible to the 3.3v pin problem, it's easy enough to circumvent. "
= Some people (typically with older power supplies or older NAS units) may encounter a problem where the SATA power plug doesn't comply with the newer SATA spec that the drives expect. This is easily worked-around by using a small piece of Kapton tape or using a SATA power extension cable. Google if you need to do this.
"Last time I got essentially an Ultrastar Data Center drive in it."
= Many people get higher end drives inside these Easystore enclosures, the bare drives sometimes would cost 2x to >3x the cost of the Easystore drives.

So this external can be opened, harddrive removed easily enough, and then used for another purpose.

Unless it is relevant to them and they don't know it yet. Dude's trying to learn.
few years ago it was red drives but they started to put white label drives in them starting last year
