Well made external SSD case.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's very well made. I put in an NVMe SSD I removed from a ThinkPad, plugged it in, and it just worked! The USB-C to USB-A adapter made it easy to connected to my old computer.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat product. With minor caveat
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product, fairly simple install except for the little plastic piece that holds the module down. You can’t just twist it out of the way, you need to remove it entirely and putting it back in is a bit difficult as the piece itself and the hole are TINY.
I would recommend this to a friendWorks as expected, reduces ewaste
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got an old laptop or desktop that died? Take the drive and put it in here. Less ewaste and now you have a new external SSD and you can get uour files back, assuming your SSD wasn't the bit that died.
I would recommend this to a friendreally good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good enclousure, super easy to get the tray in and out, a little difficult to actually get the drive in, there's some weird like lever lock or something that we had to figure out but its great.
I would recommend this to a friendSeemed to work just fine.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this to recover data from the hard drive from my old Lenovo that had serious USB C power problems. Seems to work just fine.
I would recommend this to a friendGood card reader
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked great for mirroring cards. Loved the type C connections.
I would recommend this to a friendQuality enclosure.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great enclosure for cloning or general use. Like the fastening mechanism better than cheaper enclosures I’ve bought (and returned) from Amazon. It’s a plastic tab that locks the NVME not a screw. Kept this one for future use.
I would recommend this to a friendWorks well
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well. Normally Best Buy brands offer a better value, but I feel like this is a bit overpriced.

It Works!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this device to house an off-brand 500 GB NVMe drive I had laying around. It works as advertised. As others have mentioned, the NVMe drive hold down is plastic, so take your time and be careful with it.

Worked fine for me
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used this to clone (using Acronis) a failing NVMe Windows 10 system drive to a new (Samsung) NVMe. Been running PC with new drive for a few weeks now without any issues, so it appears to have worked fine for me.
