4.0 out of 5 stars Well it was pretty good... died after 4.5 years...

2025-12-28    -Greg

I guess it was a pretty good value for the price.... note it has 4 TINY screws on the edges to hold it together (plus the slightly larger M.2 hold down screw, so if you don't like tiny screws this isn't the one for you...Personally, I was looking for something a bit more "open air" as I'm sure this enclosure did hold in some heat, but it lasted a good while...It worked great for 4 years and 7 months of fairly light home use (used it on a secondary drive that was just used for some extra photo storage not any heavy use like gaming. Note: I did not use a heatsink pad and that potentially could have affected the life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for M.2 SATA

2026-01-31    -Mitchell Fanning

It was perfect, I do piece by piece upgrades on my pc, graphics card 2 years back, MOBO and cpu this year. Well when I built my first PC 8-10 years ago, I didn’t realize the difference between M.2 NVME and M.2 SATA. Asus’s X870e doesn’t support M.2 SATA, and my windows install is on that drive. I’ll still do a fresh install but as a bandaid, it works perfectly.

Great

Great M.2 case. Sleek. Very light. Does what it was designed to do.

1.0 out of 5 stars Just another piece of junk

2026-01-12    -Mike_in_Oregon

I needed something to put my M.2 NVMe Samsung 990 PRO into so I could use it in my docking station that does not have the M.2 NVMe connector on it. This seemed to fit the bill when I purchased it.Got it out of the box and it took me a few minutes to figure out how to open it. Since it had a screw driver I figured it has screws that need to be taken out like other enclosures, but nope. There is a small clear piece of plastic you pull on to remove the cover. That's better than screws but they could have mentioned this in the manual.Next I try to put my M.2 into the slot and I find that it won't fit. This piece of junk has the tab that goes in between the two rows of pins too far to one side, so it hits the wide row of pins rather than sliding into the slot. Or the bracket is too small and the M.2 can't go to the right far enough as it hits the wall of the bracket. Maybe cheap Chinese M.2 drives fit in this, but none of my Samsung M.2's will.Total waste of money and time.

Solución perfecta para montar un disco SSD en interface SATA

2026-02-14    -Uve Puntop

He usado con éxito este adaptador para sustituir el disco de un portátil, un disco mecánico de 1Tb (Samsung) por un disco SSD SATA Crucial modelo MX500 de 1Tb. El SSD Crucial es un modelo bastante habitual, que no destaca por ser especialmente rápido.He pasado el test CrystalDiskMark antes y después del cambio.Los resultados son muy elocuentes: el disco SSD Crucial, montado dentro de este adaptador, conectado por SATA en lugar del disco mecánico tiene un rendimiento entre 4 y 5 veces más rápido que el disco mecánico, y llegando a 550Mb/S, muy cerca de la velocidad máxima teórica del interface SATA III de 600Mb/S.Para re-comprobar, he montado el disco SSD con este adaptador y además dentro de una caja externa SATA-USB, y conectado al mismo ordenador por USB 3.0, me da una velocidad de transferencia de unas 4 veces superior a la del disco mecánico. Es decir, cercana a la velocidad que obtenemos en el disco usado conectado directamente al interfaz SATA, y en ambos casos dando una velocidad de al menos 4 veces la velocidad del disco mecánico SATA original.Para mí el resultado es claro: este adaptador es una manera muy sencilla (Y barata) de usar un disco SSD para modernizar un portátil con interface SATA y disco mecánico.No he hablado del montaje, porque es tremendamente sencillo y cualquier persona que haya trasteado con discos duros internos sabrá como montarlo. No obstante subo fotos donde se muestra la forma en que se monta, como queda y como se compara con el disco mecánico. También subo los pantallazos con los resultados de los tests.

Works as they should. Very useful!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product, make sure you buy the right one for your drive though.

2026-02-26    -Logan

I saw lots of reviews about this not working. But there is a picture in the images that show what keys/types work with these adapters.The one i purchased had the key for my sata ssd. Which my pcie 4 slot, runs sata ssds, but not my pcie 3 slot. So it left me 1tb of storage down.This device, works great. Getting full speed I think on crystal disk. Overall a great product. And a quite elegant solution for a problem I didnt know I was going to have.Thank you Sabrent :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast and Easy

Worked very well, with fast transfer speeds (300MBps sustained on a USB 3.0 port - it could possibly be higher, but i didn't test it on 3.1/3.2). Very easy to install, it came with all screws and a mini screwdriver.
