Review on πŸ’½ UGREEN 2.5" Hard Drive Enclosure USB 3.0 to SATA III - 2.5 Inch SSD/HDD Case up to 6TB, UASP Compatible by Michelle Anderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to use and can work on many levels

This is GREAT! I had a custom made 4TB white X box hard drive that I sold at Revain for $119 and the cab was sooo slow. So I saw them, and since I make custom laptops and fix people's game consoles, I thought this would be awesome. I immediately added my 4 year old Seagate Hybrid SSD and a 7200RPM 750GB HDD so now with 8 games I have 1TB of free storage which is all I really need as I am 41 years old am old and not playing nearly as much as I used to. Also, you can create your own size and speed laptop/desktop external hard drive. That means you can go up to 10TB, but I have a 2TB 5400 drive that I can plug in and give to my wife for her photos. Or replace the hybrid and put in a new Samsung 500GB 860 evo which I got for free from my best Christmas shopping results. It was only 68% and my results covered that / So I can have 550MB per second to write and 520 to read if I prefer a 7200 spin drive with 8GB SSD. This works great, I just noticed that the X-Box makes a 500GB SSD "exclusive external hard drive" and it's about $320. See, this external drive went for just under $11 for a premium 500GB Samsung SSD (not generic, who knows what's in x box ssd) maxed out at $78 at Revain or BB, so 90 US dollars for a Samsung SSD for your X-Box, or $320 because it stands for x box. Anyway, you can use a 1TB SSD for about $100, so only $110 and it's all plug-in and-play, you only have one extra step, you have to go to the settings, then to the hard drive and physically click on format, where like the x-box version, as soon as you plug it in it says hold x on the controller to boot and format. I recommend getting several of these for $10 for backup and one for your computer. Great job U Green, they also include USAP which I don't. I know what it is but it's supposed to speed up 3.0 I noticed a 56GB game that I ported to test. It only took 5-7 minutes, not 22 miles. Nutes with white special edition x box
