I've bought 3 different kinds of NVME portable enclosure and this is the best one. The lid for the top actually stays on and it comes with the right screws and is easy to install. No connectivity problems and a great price for what you get. No noise and it fits multiple different kinds of NVME's and its functional and practical.

This review is for Sabrent NVME to USB adapter.It just works. Plain and simple. The aluminum housing and thermal pad offer effective cooling for the drive. I just picked up a second one for cloning drives.

Copie de fichiers. Fonctionnement impeccable

Extrema qualidade perfeito acabamento e excepcional visual. Nunca vi melhor

Wow 😯 it’s fast 💨 n does it’s job well no overheating 🥵 unlike 👎 There Dock

This worked perfectly for my spare M.2 drive. Metal construction, small form factor and easy to get the drive in. Functions as expected. Recommended!

Transferencias rápidas, compatibilidad entre OS y se ve de buenos materiales

If you're looking for an external enclosure to use for M.2 storage that is easy to swap between drives with, look no further. This thing is $20, can do transfer speeds up to 1GB/s (which for an external enclosure is pretty good), and the metal body acts as a passive heatsink for the M.2 drive inside, provided you use correctly sized thermal pads... the ones that come on it are a bit thin & won't make contact with some single-sided drives.The small cord it comes with IS required unless you have another high-speed capable data cable, as most USB cables are capped at 40MB/s transfer speed, the little one that comes with this caps out at 1GB/s, which is a huge difference.Easy to use, good packaging, quality materials, great product, only knock I could possible give it is the included thermal pad material is a bit thin & not very good, but I just replaced that with my own stuff.

I bought this Sabrent branded enclosure because I planned to upgrade my daughter's HP Pavilion "Gaming" PC model 790-0010. I also bought this HP PC from Amazon circa June 2018. The stock loadout of this HP PC had a 1TB WD Blue SATA HDD.Not too long into the life cycle of this HP PC, I bought a WD Blue M.2 SATA 512 GB SSD and installed it into the HP PC's vacant M.2 socket and migrated the WD Blue 1TB HDD "boot" drive to the M.2 SATA SSD and turned the WD Blue 1TB HDD into a data drive. This gave a nice performance boost to this HP PC.Fast forward October 2023 and my daughter is telling me how the 512GB SSD is always full. My daughter who is not overly PC savvy didn't even realize that the 1TB HDD was still there for data storage of things like pics, videos and things of that nature. Still, she managed to fill her 512GB M.2 SSD with Steam and Blizzard games and needed more space.I purchased a 2TB Crucial P3 drive during Amazon's "Prime Day in October 2023" event. Per Crucial's website this NVME drive would work in the HP PC even though it was NVME and not M.2 SATA.I used Clonezilla Live via bootable USB thumb stick to clone the M.2 SATA SSD to the M.2 NVME Crucial drive.So let's talk about the Sabrent enclosure.I selected this because it supports BOTH M.2 SATA and M.2 NVME drives. Other products that I saw supported one or the other but not both. I also have other Sabrent products such as usb to SATA/IDE cables for connecting drives via USB. The handful of Sabrent products appear to be of good quality. They may cost a few bucks more but I like the piece of mind of having a quality product.The enclosure is easy to open up and install a M.2 drive into.Here is my minor quibble and why I removed one star from a perfect 5 from my rating. And this is more on me an not Sabrent.So the product page on Amazon has pictures of the product and has a product video that is officially from Sabrent with a guy named Mike in it. The guy says his name is Mike so I assume that's his name. Mike is happily demoing and showing off the enclosure. It's a great video and I am glad to have watched it.That said, it falsely put me under an impression about the product's use that was not true. To be clear though, the false impression that I was under is clearly documented in the included enclosure product manual. Had I consulted the enclosure manual first, I would have had no confusion. Still, Mike's charisma and charm were intoxicating and I was instantly captivated and trusting of anything Mike was telling me about this enclosure.During the video, Mike claimed that this enclosure supports multiple size M.2 drives. To accomodate this , the video indicates how easy it is to move the "locking pin/nub" to the appropriate locking hole in the enclosure so you can accommodate those shorter M.2 drives. Fantastic! This is great!So the video gave me the impression that regardless of the size of the M.2 drive you are working with, you will have to install a locking pin/nub into the correct locking hole to hold your drive in place so as to close the enclosure.This is not the case. I gather that most M.2 drives are of the 2280 size and the enclosure has permanently installed a turning locking pin at the front of the enclosure that will lock a 2280 sized drive in place. The included locking pin/nub for a shorter drive is in the packaging but not needed nor installed by default in the enclosure. The vide with Mike in it gave me the impression that the locking pin/nub had to be manually removed and reinserted each time a drive was put into the enclosure. That is not the case. Again, the manual calls this out clearly. But I didn't look at the manual because Mike told me everything I needed to know.When it became clear that the turning locking pin/numb in the enclosure is not removeable and then when I consulted the manual, it all made sense.So the confusion is clearly on my end. I should have looked at the manual first.That aside, this is a great product. If you need to clone an M.2 drive to another M.2 drive, you need this in your PC toolbox.I wish the enclosed USB C to USB C cable was a tad longer but not a big deal.I would happily buy more of these and use them as glorified thumb sticks for discarded M.2 drives I have from other upgrades.Great product.Thanks again, Mike! I still trust and believe in you.

I bought this enclosure for $26.99 here, on Amazon. Amazon initially lost the enclosure in the mail, but after contacting Amazon, they sent out a replacement with free overnight shipping, no questions asked. A+ for Amazon Customer Support.Now, onto the actual enclosure: This thing is fantastic! The tool-less opening makes perfect sense, and the rubber garment to hold down your M.2 drive is genius. You won't find any screws here, which means that you can easily and quickly swap M.2s in and out of the enclosure should you need to. Performance is as advertised: Pairing the enclosure with a 2TB HP EX950 (Which is more SSD than this enclosure needs, but I got it for $200 on r/hardwareswap. I would recommend a WD Blue SN550 if you're looking at buying a new dedicated drive to put in the enclosure specifically.), I consistently hit the advertised speeds of the enclosure.Perhaps the best feature of this device, however, is that it is effectively driverless. Plug and play worked seamlessly on each operating system I have tested (Windows and Linux). Furthermore, the computer has direct access to the drive! The enclosure doesn't impose any sort of middle-man to hide the hardware, which means that you can use this enclosure to read SMART data from drives utilizing a program like CrystalDiskInfo. The ability to read SMART data from the enclosure is incredible! As someone who is constantly buying and selling hardware, this feature alone makes the purchase worth it.The only "downside" to this enclosure is not one explicitly of the enclosure, but rather one which stems from the nature of running a PCIe device in a closed metal box: this will be dependent on the drive you choose to put in the enclosure, but generally speaking, it will get HOT. However, this is a good thing as it means that the enclosure is effective in pulling the heat from the drive. It does mean, though, that you will have to be careful. One could feasibly burn themselves depending on how they handle the enclosure when it is under load.So, all that being said: When I set out to buy an NVME M.2 enclosure, I was looking at this and the Anker equivalent. I ultimately went with this once, given Sabrent's generally positive reputation in the PC building community as a storage manufacturer and the heatsink design of this enclosure, and I am glad that I did. I don't think I would be comfortable running the drive much hotter than it is now. If you are planning on running a drive that's cooler than a 2TB HP EX950 (like maybe an SN550 or an SK Hynix P31), then perhaps another enclosure would work. Still, I recommend this one. The design is logical, and the heatsink is exceptionally effective, the enclosure is very compact, and 1000 mb/s is well worth it if you frequently move files between devices. I highly recommended this M.2 enclosure.
