Looks like an expensive item for something so small, but there are quite sophisticated data controllers built in to adapt from the M.2 connectors to USB and the casing itself is sturdy metal with a nice quality feel. A couple of small screws allow access to seat the SSD in a slot inside the casing. I used this to connect an M.2 SSD to my laptop to clone and replace the primary drive, then put the old, smaller drive into the casing to use as an external drive.

Nice and easy to use. Easy to install the M.2 drive. Fast and seems well made and robust. Nice and easy to use. Easy to install the M.2 drive. Fast and seems well made and robust.

I needed a means of "cleaning" SSD's and this has proved to be a great way to achieve exactly that for me. Right price, easy to use. I needed a means of "cleaning" SSD's and this has proved to be a great way to achieve exactly that for me. Right price, easy to use.

Did not work with the HDDSAM971600/Samsung-970-Evo-1TB-M2-2280NVMe-SSD-RWMax-3400MBs Did not work with the HDDSAM971600/Samsung-970-Evo-1TB-M2-2280NVMe-SSD-RWMax-3400MBs

It would appear that a M.2 PCI-E 512Gb card does not work on this adaptor, no media found is the message I see, the card is a spare left over after upgrading a new Asus laptop to a 1Tb M.2. I have now ordered the PCI-E card for another machine, but I did want it as a USB external drive.

I was pleased this item helped me recover my files on my HP Elitebook's SSD when the laptop wouldn't start. It works with M.2 B key SDDs and is easy to put together. Thanks very much for having this handy product. I was pleased this item helped me recover my files on my HP Elitebook's SSD when the laptop wouldn't start.

Really worth the money to turn hardrive from dead laptop into USB drive Really worth the money to turn hardrive from dead laptop into USB drive

The drive wobbles slightly in the case. Noting that a bit of Ezy Tack won't fix though. Works fine as it should. The drive wobbles slightly in the case. Noting that a bit of Ezy Tack won't fix though. Works fine as it should.

Didn't work. Not sure if the product or SSD was at fault. Was a cheap experiment either way so not fussed. Didn't work. Not sure if the product or SSD was at fault. Was a cheap experiment either way so not fussed.

Using this enclosure with an M.2 ssd adds a lot of speed to the Pi 4. Simple to install, plug and play! Using this enclosure with an M.2 ssd adds a lot of speed to the Pi 4. Simple to install, plug and play!
