SABRENT SSD Enclosure, Hard Drive Enclosure, Super Fast Data Transfer 2.5 SSD Enclosure, Support UASP, External Tool-free SATA Enclosure, USB cable included (EC-UASP)

Yes good enclosure, this is the only one I have with the USB A male to USB A male, but works very well and will stop me mixing things up. Very easy to pop the HDD into and works straight away and did not drop out like a previous caddy I bought a few years back. Good product, good price a speedy delivery.

I bought this to be able to connect an SSD to my Nintendo Wii, but I will likely be buying another one of these to use with another HDD or SSD to create a portable hard drive in the future.I've used Sabrent products before, and I've always been impressed with how intuitive their products are and how easy they are to use.In the box there are some instructions along with the enclosure and a USB 3.0 A male-to-male cable. The enclosure is designed for 2.5" inch drives, and it's quite straightforward to fit the drive inside the enclosure.While the enclosure is mostly plastic, it feels very well-made and would offer some protection to the drive inside.The speed of the enclosure is going to vary greatly depending on the drive you have inside it, along with the system you are connecting it to, but I got the levels of performance I expected during my usage with the enclosure having virtually no negative impact on speeds.Overall, this is a great, affordable enclosure that can be used for various tasks. I look forward to using the one I currently have more going forward, but I feel like I will be purchasing an additional one shortly.Update - July 2024: I ended up ordering another one for my PS5, as I had a 1TB SATA SSD lying around that I wanted to use with the console, as I was running out of storage.Similarly to last time, the enclosure is working exactly as expected and works well enough to store more modern games on it without any noticeable performance loss.As a general rule of thumb, these enclosures are only as good as what you put in them, as well as other limitations such as the device it’s connected to. Once again, I'm more than happy with the result.

I had a spare SSD which i wanted to use as extra storage for laptops in the house. I chose this due to the tool less design by the same brnad as one of my SSDs. It was easy to install my SSD inside and worked just fine. There is a switch to turn off the drive without disconnecting which is great for backup devices. However the cheap plastic case lacks a quality feel which i have had from other enclosures at a similar price point and the annoying bright blue LED indicating that its on cant be turned off and its a bit jarring in a clean setup or darkened area. Not bad for the money and easy to use but details sometimes spoil a good product

IF YOU FIND THIS REVIEW HELPFUL PLEASE LET ME KNOW BY PRESSING THE HELPFUL BUTTON BELOW.The product "Sabrent Hard Disk Drive Enclosure" is a perfect example of how there are many products that are expensive, but with some time and patience, one can find similar products for a cheaper price. Now, often you might not want to buy the cheaper version of a product, as they are often worse in quality. The Sabrent enclosure for your hard drive has many purposes. One purpose, the one which I purchased it for, was to recover data from a damaged laptop, but the hard drive was fine. You can also use it to connect a hard drive to your PC to use for backups. It can also make the hard drive work exactly like a USB. The case slides open and the lid comes off. You can also prop up the lid on the side of the case as I show in picture 4. There is an on/off switch on top which isn't much use to me. The button turns off the power to the enclosure and it turns off, not showing up on the computer anymore. You can just unplug it from your device if not wanting to use it, but be sure to eject the hard drive first. If the hard drive doesn't show up, It is likely a problem with your hard drive and not the enclosure. I tested this with different hard drives. The broken hard drives would often not show up, while the perfectly fine hard drives worked fine. The case is very easy to use. Just open the lid of the enclosure and plug in the hard drive to the hard drive connector pins. Plug the USB into the enclosure on one side, and into your pc or mac on the other side. I have tested the enclosure with Windows, Mac, and Linux. It performs perfectly well with all three. I would definitely recommend this product for you if you need to connect your hard drive some way to a computer. I have also installed windows using this on a PC. You can also use it to open up the pc which the hard drive was using to recover data if the PC breaks. You will just require another computer.Pros:- It is very lightweight- Requires no additional software, shows up as a USB- Easy to use- Helps get data on and off the hard drive.Cons:- The wire is a bit short- The LED can be a bit annoying at times.- Otherwise no issues.Final Verdict: This enclosure is perfectly well priced. I recommend you buy it if you need some way to connect your hard drive to a computer, whether it's for backups or data recovery, it will be the solution.IF YOU FOUND THIS REVIEW HELPFUL PLEASE LET ME KNOW BY PRESSING THE HELPFUL BUTTON BELOW.

My laptop was becoming unbelievably slow to start, and even failing to start at all on occasions. I suspected a major problem, but a friend advised me to try an SSD drive and the results are amazing. Instant start-up and shutdown, where previously I was waiting for several minutes.

This is the third one I've purchased, so they must be good. If you are replacing your laptop for a new model, these are great for reusing the hard drive from your old laptop. Now have 1TB extra storage at low cost. Very easy to install in the casing.

I've purchased this item about 9 times now and it hasn't failed me once. It works and it's a good price.
