Excellent product. Worked will with a 1Tb SATA NVME drive that I installed in an older system.

It actually works quite well but have fun with the little tiny screws that hold the cover on. I dropped one and I put it together with just three and it's fine.I bought three different brands and they're all acceptable but this Sabrent is best of three. The picture shows three with this Sabrent in the middle.

Ormai quasi tutti i notebook, sia Windows che Apple, utilizzano SSD M.2 come memoria principale, e avevo bisogno di una soluzione per accedere a un vecchio SSD. Questo adattatore si è rivelato perfetto per il lavoro!La custodia in alluminio è robusta e ben fatta, e l'installazione è stata semplice e veloce. Una volta collegato, il disco è stato riconosciuto immediatamente e funziona esattamente come descritto.Ottima soluzione per chi, come me, vuole recuperare dati o riutilizzare un SSD M.2 come unità esterna. Davvero soddisfatto dell'acquisto, lo consiglio a chi cerca un adattatore affidabile!

Since I read the compatibility statements, I had no issue putting the SSD in. I used a Samsung 860 EV M.2 which using USB 3.2 or Thunderbolt 4, averaged 3200/MBs. Now using this SSD adapter, it is getting 550/MBs. For my purpose this is more than adequate as my PC has no more M.2 slots available and I did not want it hanging off of an USB port.

I used this product on my new system in order to carry forward my old SATA SSD. It worked fine for some time, but then the windows install somehow got corrupted, and I reinstalled windows onto a newer drive. Once again, everything worked fine for a month or so. Then suddenly I was getting numerous crashes followed by the computer refusing to boot. I started removing components and checking the system after each removal. Unplugging this enclosure caused it to work again. In retrospect, I wonder if the first set of crashes regarding the windows installation was another symptom of the same problem. It seems likely. In any event, the enclosure is too unreliable for me to continue using, but was at least useful to transfer files from the old system to the new.

The screw for holding the M.2 stick has no mechanism to prevent the contact between the stick and the bottom of the enclosure. I had to put some thermal pad there (my own, nothing was included).The screws to close the enclosure are wrong. I cannot screw them in all the way. They stick out. That actually prevented me from using the enclosure in a computer where I planned to install it. I had to use tape instead!Update: I could get the side screws all the way in by using grease. Thin thermal pad on both sides took care of potential shorts. I can use the enclosure in a laptop as intended. Upping the rating a bit.

I used this adapter for a Silicon Power 1TB A55 M.2 SSD I purchased. I was under the impression I had two M.2 slots but, I only had one M.2 SSD slot and a 2.5" storage slot. My laptop is an ASUS ROG Strix GL753VE .Comes with clear install instructions, little screwdriver, and screws. No issues fitting inside the designated storage slot, After installing this internal drive, don't forget to set the partitions so the laptop detects it as storage! Everything working fine thus far. Speed of programs and games installed on to this drive improved immensely!

Ran my Synology DS1817+ with SSD cache and replace that PCIE cache card with a 10gbit card, so explored ideas to still use a SSD cache, with 2 bays free on the NAS. Wanted to give this a try and it works amazingly well, installed with 2x Samsung 860EVO M.2 SATA, no stabliity issues, installed and works once plugged in.The tray doesn't have standoff to support the card but there's enough pressure pushing back with the m.2 installed you don't need to screw the m.2 all the way to the pcb.5 star for those looking to make use of SATA M.2 into a SATA III connector

I guess it was a pretty good value for the price.... note it has 4 TINY screws on the edges to hold it together (plus the slightly larger M.2 hold down screw, so if you don't like tiny screws this isn't the one for you...Personally, I was looking for something a bit more "open air" as I'm sure this enclosure did hold in some heat, but it lasted a good while...It worked great for 4 years and 7 months of fairly light home use (used it on a secondary drive that was just used for some extra photo storage not any heavy use like gaming. Note: I did not use a heatsink pad and that potentially could have affected the life.

Candidly, I'd begun to consider using a SATA external after some bad experience with a couple of new thumb drives from another "Name brand" manufacturer. After reading a number of reviews about other USB thumb drives, one might wonder if the market has adapted any new manufacturing process? such that it may not be working out really well for the thumb drive user.Not to speculate, though, this encosure from Sabrent - using this together with a Kingspec 128 GB SSD card - is working out surprisingly well, even over USB 2.In my own experience with this enclosure, I've built and installed a FreeBSD 12.1 OS to the SSD card. Under some moderate interactive desktop usage - mostly, so far, using Chromium and the Mate desktop, all locally built and installed to this external storage device, moreover using Windows 7 in a Virtual VM image on the same - it's very responsive for I/O under such normal interactive desktop applications. even over USB 2.Although in my own usage case, the OS support may not seem perfectly stellar - the UASP support in the OS is limited and under development, also no apparent trim support in the OS itself, moreover I'm not altogether certain about how the OS' normal UNIX-like filesystem works out for USB devices - but with some moderate filesystem maintenance, I'm certain this may continue to work out in a longer term, for purposes of external storage.Beyond the heuristics of this particular usage case, Sabrent has clearly put some caring consideration into so much as the design of the USB cable, itself.By contrast, I've had a remarkably bad time with an external disk from one "Name Brand" US manufacturer, almost entirely due to the manufacturer's apparently poor choice of USB cabling. The cable from the other manufacturer is touchy, spotty, and sometimes fails without warning. I'm certain that some of the internal media errors on the disk, now, may be due to that, in even partly so. A really bad experience with that other manufacturer's storage options, and in so much just due to the flaky USB cable.If it was in budget, to me, I'd be using this Sabrent enclosure model for all external storage, now.The cable included with this Sabrent enclosure - although it's in use on the enclosure itself, presently - it's even served to make that other external storage device into a usable thing, again.I'm considering picking up a PCI ExpressCard for this same laptop, such as to be able to use this enclosure and other storage devices via USB 3. Perhaps one could be able to contribute to the development of the OS' UASP/XHCI Streams support, at then. Meanwhile, I'm certain that this great enclosure from Sabrent will continue to work out well, with my local system configuration.
