Nothing but praise, here. I only have tested it using m.2 2280 SATA 1TB version. I'll update this review, if I use something different.--- The Praise ---I will gladly pay higher price for anything StarTech related as they make high quality products!Before I buy anything, from any place on Amazon, I make sure to do my research on the internet first. I found that StarTech, based on real reviews, makes high quality, trustworthy products. So, after buying my first product from them, I kept buying from them for everything I need. They might be higher cost than everyone else on the market, but your also getting the best high quality product too! Save yourself time and money; just buy the best from StarTech.

1.0 out of 5 stars Misleading description

2026-02-14    -Jeremy Lee

If you're trying to use an m.2 drive out of a laptop as an external storage device or really any m.2 drive, DO NOT buy this. I fell for the title and didn't do more research when I purchased. I'm partially at fault for not reading deeper into the documentation for this item. It ONLY supports SATA m.2 devices, not PCIE. So if your m.2 drive uses NVME or PCIE channels this enclosure will not work. Normally I wouldn't rate something this low if it's my own fault it didn't work. However, the description is very misleading. Stating things like "10Gbps external enclosure with USB C" even though SATA isn't capable of 10Gbps.. If I have to download a manual from your site to decipher the actual capability of your drive, you're misleading consumers.

5.0 out of 5 stars hard to disassemble the new case but all is good after that...

Bought this for extra nvme card when I updated my laptop. The StarTech case is very well made. I considered only 4 stars because when it came, the cover was VERY hard to remove with the supplied T-driver...too small. The cover screws were torqued down very tight. After finding the correct driver in my tool kit, I was able to get the 4 screws out and reassemble with my spare nvme card.Windows 10 recognized the unit as a USB drive and I formatted it. As a test, I copied 2 large video files to it, a total of 50G. It took about 4 min to transfer. The case got warm but nvme drives do get warm so all was good. I would buy another if I ever get another spare nvme card.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great little product

This little device works exactly as described and gives great productivity. I purchased this to help with an NVME migration on a laptop. This laptop is an older model with a USB c port and 1 NVME port. I plugged the new 2TB NVME into this device and the laptop via the gen 1 USB c port using the provided cable. I installed the crucial version of Acronis. The new drive was readily detected and had great performance via this adapter. The entire 256GB Samsung Evo drive, which only had just under 2gb free, copied to the new P5 2TB crucial in less than 15 minutes. I was pleasantly surprised at the performance of this device being plugged into a gen1 USB C port and then also being adapted via this product. I expected at least an hour of copy time and, as I mentioned, only took 15 minutes. All said and done this job only took an hour after opening and then verifying the transfer after drive drive replacement. Customer was very happy with only an hours charge when I quoted a possibility of 4 hours for this. I will be keeping and using this item for as long as I can. Hopefully I'll be able to replace it if needed when the time comes. Thank you Startech for always making well built and high quality products that always get the job done.

🟢 il est vraiment petit🟢 Il est vraiment bien fait excellente qualité🟢 Il n'est pas lourd il pèse ce dans quoi il est fait je le trouve léger🟢 J'en ai pris un deuxième obligé.🟢 Avec ce genre d'article il faut prendre des nvme encryptables🟢 Le rapport qualité-prix est évident à l'intérieur on met des vrais vis et non des systèmes déverrouillage propriétaire ou tout azimut.🟢 N'allez pas comparer cet article avec des articles beaucoup moins cher...quelle erreur on compare ce qui est comparable:matériaux utilisés, taux de transfert, chipset, type et taille de fichier transférable d'un ordinateur au lecteur d'un téléphone mobile au lecteur...J'ai déjà acheté le Asus Tuf ainsi que d'autres auparavant ils étaient certifiés étanche mais les fichiers transférables n'étaient pas transférables entre le téléphone mobile et le lecteur....

Work Great

Good product

5.0 out of 5 stars Good enough for professional use.

Works well enough that my employer is now purchasing them for data recoveries in our Asset Depot. With more laptops using m.2 SATA drives, this thing is becoming less optional and more necessity.- Expected transfer rates.- No heat issues.- The PCB slides into the enclosure along extruded rails and is a good fit. Minimal noise from movement.- For frequent access you can leave one end open and use a rubber band to keep the PCB in place. It's not the most elegant solution, but when you put a new drive in 5+ times a day, it's certainly more convenient... also safer than leaving the PCB sitting outside of the case.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another quality product from StarTech

IMPORTANT UPDATESo, I thought the M.2 SSD I put in this enclosure was fine because no errors were detected and I had been using it in the enclosure for about 5 months with no issue. But upon experiencing data loss, I bought another different enclosure which I was already using for an NVME SSD which was working quiet well.Well, that enclosure also experienced issues with the enclosed SSD. I can only conclude, unfortunately, that the SSD is dying. This is the first SSD I've ever had die.Anyway, all things being equal, I've updated my review to 4 stars. The enclosure works well. I've owned many StarTech products and have been overall satisfied with them. I'm glad that this product didn't turn out to be a dud and is another one that I can recommend. It lost a star because it's not tool less. The Sabrent enclosures I bought are smaller and tool less and I like them better. But, this enclosure gets the job done. One particular advantage of this product is that it comes mith two cabres: USB C to USB A and USB C to USB C. I would buy this again if there wasn't anything better (like the Sabrent--which comes only with a USB C to USB C cable).ORIGINAL BUT WRONG REVIEWI've had good luck with a lot of StarTech gear, but not this. I lost a VM disk image that was on the SSD m.2 nata drive I stuck in this. I thought maybe Windows did something wonky, as it's won't to do. I was forced to repartition the disk. And before anyone asks, yes, the enclosed SSD is in fine health. No bad blocks, no read errors, etc. This time, I was trying to copy source code onto the enclosed drive. And it just stopped. And Windows reported a device access error. I'm done with this enclosure and already bought a replacement from Sabrent. I had bought a Sabrent when I originally purchased this device and I've had zero issues with that one. Don't use this. You Will lose data.
