Hi,
I have a no-name enclosure with a Prolific 3507 chip, and tried to read
smart information, no luck. Below the details.
BTW: update to latest firmware highly recommended as these devices
may eat your data otherwise (as encountered myself):

idVendor 0x067b Prolific Technology, Inc.
idProduct 0x3507 PL3507 ATAPI6 Bridge
bcdDevice 0.01
iManufacturer 1 Prolific Technology Inc.
iProduct 2 ATAPI-6 Bridge Controller
# ./smartctl -s on -dsat,12 -T verypermissive -a -q noserial /dev/sdb
smartctl 5.39 2009-04-28 21:11 [x86_64-suse-linux-gnu] (local build)
