Handy SSD reader.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works as described as does the plastic retainer some reviewers are complaining about. If the SSD is inserted in the retainer slot, it turns easily.

Great NVME PCI SSD Compact Enclosure
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was a surprise to find this enclosure for SSD drives. I just had a church laptop go down due to cooling fan issues and needed to get files transferred to a new replacement laptop. This worked perfectly. Very easy to get the drive inserted and stick on the thermal pad. At a nice price too.

Inconsistent compatibility
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Paired with a Samsung 2TB 980 Pro it's pretty fast at 1.2Gbp/s when it actually works, however it works only sporadically across different devices. Works on my desktop PC and laptop PC, works on my Motorola phone, doesn't work on my Samsung phone, doesn't work on my Onn TV box. I'm guessing they're using a very old USB C NVME chipset
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from InsigniaCustomerSupport
Posted .Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're glad to hear that the speed is impressive when it works. We understand your frustration with the sporadic compatibility across different devices. Your insights about the USB C NVME chipset are valuable and will help us improve our products.

Great item

I would recommend this to a friend Works well as a storage drive
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This works really well for a NEW M.2 SSD case for fast usb based storage. You cannot, however, wipe and re-initialize an SSD removed from a computer for some reason.

It works
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works. Thats about all that can be said. It took care of what I needed it to but I had to return the first one due to an intermittent problem with the supplied cable and the latch. No problems with the cable on the second one. The latch is just a very poor design. Out of two of them, I couldn't get either one of them to latch nor could others who tried around my household. Really doesn't seem to matter though. Push the M2 down just a bit when you insert it back into the supplied enclosure. No problems removing it back out. If you need something now, don't hesitate to get it as it will work. If you are nitpicky like I am and expect the latch to work, find another.

- Cons mentioned:Heat
Does what it needs to, but runs super hot
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device worked well enough in helping me set up a new SSD for install in my PC by transferring Windows and all my important files over, but holy hell does it run hot. I was honestly concerned that even the included heatsink bight not be enough to prevent some small degree of damage to my SSD.

Does what you'd expect!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've used this with the Samsung 980 Pro M.2 SSD to both clone drives and transfer files. It works fine, with minimal to no thermal throttling from what I can see. Speeds are what's listed on the specifications page. It comes with built-in thermal pads so you shouldn't have to worry about it overheating too much, depending upon how hot your drive runs
