A:AnswerMost likely, this drive will not fit inside the enclosure with the heatsink attached. You will probably achieve better results by using the heat pad that is included with the enclosure.
A:AnswerYou would need an adapter for usb 3.1 to usb c then you would need to waste all of the performance on the drive which is worth about as much as the than your ps5 most likely to connect to the 5Gbits port. I would go with the old spec ssd. Something like the seagate game drive.
A:AnswerYes but there is currently no drive that supports even a quarter of the bandwidth of the usb 4th gen. Even then it would very on the kind of usb 4th gen. (Can be 20-49 Gbits/second). Thunderbolt 4 would be the same story.
A:AnswerOne of the most likely causes for the drive to show as "protected" and not be accessible, is due to the Windows encryption having been applied to the drive. You will have to obtain the 32-character encryption key from your Microsoft account.
You can get the information for this from the Microsoft support page. Just search for BitLocker recovery key.
A:AnswerThat mostly depends on where you plug the device into if its not a USB 3.0 port you may experience slowed transfer speeds. If your USB C port has SS on it you should be fine.
A:AnswerI used it to recover files off a computer that had motherboard issue. So I would imagine you could use it to clone a drive with the right software. It thought drive was a USB drive.
A:AnswerBillT here. I have data I want to keep on the device. If I reformat, I'll lose the data. Currently the file system is NTFS; not compatible for an external drive? Thanks.
A:AnswerI don't know what chip is used, but I tried several of the available options and --device=sntjmicron worked. (The short form "-d sntjmicron" also works.
A:AnswerI doubt it would work since this enclosure is designed for NVME drives. Apple used a proprietary type of drive so I'm not sure this would read it I believe there are companies that make enclosures specifically for the Apple drives as well as replacements.
