Great adaptor! Handles almost anything

This came in very handy when I came across a laptop that no longer worked, but the person I was helping needed the data from this Dr. and so I was able to take it out of the laptop and put it into the adapter and read the data just fine. That one was about an inch 2 inch and a half long. It was one of the small ones, but it fit in the slot perfectly. My son had one from three or four years ago that he needed to read and so we hooked it up to this adapter and it read it just fine. You can hook up a.SATA drive. and use it along with it. you can connect either the 3.5 or 2.5 HD. I found that a user said they were able to use it up to 18 TB but personally, I haven’t tried anything larger than eight on this one. It does have an on off switch so if it’s not working, make sure you’ve turned it on. It’s a little switch.

It works very well

I bought this in hopes of hooking up multiple drives. I have too much data lying around that I needed to back up after having issues with my main desktop running Windows 10. After long deliberations of going back and forth of thinking about this, I finally pulled the trigger on buying this enclosure for my drives. When it got here I was ecstatic. I hooked it up, along with it's supplied 12v supplied adapter that plugs into the back. I inserted my Crucial NVME M.2 1TB on top of it (My main drive from my desktop), and my internal HDD 2TB seagate infront of the enclosure. Now, here's where thinks get weird, as a computer nerd I need work arounds with my software since I'm running MacOS. Now, yesterday 9/23/2024 (Last I checked) The seller listed 4 bullet points on their webpage. One of those bullet points was line 4 "The M.2 and SATA switch key allows you to switch back and forth between the two drives at will.". If you look at the screenshots, photos, and the video that I provided. You'll see where things get a little shady. Not only did the seller removed their listings with the 4 bullet points on their product page, if you go to their main website or type it into google, and scroll under all the way under till you'll see product and specifications, it isn't listed their as well the M.2 SATA switch on the enclosure. Now, as for the enclosure itself, I have provided my own software since apple products do not natively support NTFS formats. You have to either A format a drive to exfat so that both Windows and Mac will recognize it, and B insure that this enclosure it "Plug and Play" ready. As stated in their listing, where it says "【Support M.2 NVME and SATA SSDs to USB】This M.2 hard disk enclosure will meet your needs whether you are using M.2 or SATA hard drives. Plug-and-play, no driver required, supports hot-swapping, 30 minutes without reading or writing automatically into hibernation. Great for office workers/gaming movie lovers and users with multiple different hard drives.". I also provided the screenshots that showcases this as well. The software that I use to recognize NTFS format for HDD or SDD drives allows me utilize file swapping and exploring between different drives. So, the whole point of buying this enclosure was to take all of my important files off of my main drive, the NVME one, and swap them over to any of my internal/external HDDs. However, this wasn't the case, as when I plugged the enclosure into my satechi usb u adapter, along with the 12v cord plugged into the back of the enclosure, my NVME was recognized by my macbook as an SSD. I wasn't able to mount it to my Macbook using the software that I provided for myself because of an unknown error, that popped up which I showed in one of the screenshots. Now, this isn't necessarily the software's fault, it's more along the lines of switch and bait and in-compatibility with certain platforms like Macbook for instance. Now, I might be wrong with that last one, but even still the seller did remove the 4 bullet points about having a physical switch on the enclosure itself. I also written 2 emails, one yesterday which I still haven't heard anything back from, and one today. On their product support page where you type in your name, email, phone number, and other information there's nothing listed about "Help" or "Technical Support" at all on their official website. This happens when you click on your orders, and go to product support, it takes you straight to their contact us page. Now, as for talking about product support for mac, I can't really say much because I can't get any of my drives to mount on my macbook (I have the M1 macbook air, running the latest version of MacOS). I don't know if this is due to a faulty hardware problem, or if something entirely different. Anyways, I hope Amazon sees this and other people sees this because I think people should be wary of what they are buying on here, if Amazon is allowing sellers to freely change their product information on their webpage. Especially after purchasing it.

Works pretty well. No issues here.

My primary gripe is an obvious design one; its as fragile as it looks. there is zero movement tolerance in the way the m2 gets mounted in the top of this thing. in other words, the slightest nudge results in at least a moment’s disconnect and therefore a corrupt or incomplete write/read. Naively, i thought something this exposed must have deeper channels or something to make it more robust that it appears….nope. Cant think of a use case wherein this thing could completely sealed off from the user. if thats you, go for it because otherwise its fine…. easy to set up, throughput is as fast as one might expect, no compatibility issues in win11 or linux, or ps5

Was able to recover a HDD that i thought was toast and had about 500 pictures of good memories I had forgotten about. Super helpful ^_^

Recieved the next day and worked perfectly
